I've been feeling this pain on the left side of my rib, kind of towards the end of one rib. It's been there for a few weeks now. It doesn't bother me when I'm breathing, but I notice it more when I touch it or if I'm moving around a lot at work. Should I be worried about this? What could it be?

I'm a bit worried and could use some advice. I've been feeling this pain on the upper left side of my waist for the past three days, and now I'm occasionally getting dizzy too. It all started after I got back from the gym, so I'm thinking it might be muscular, but it's been getting worse rather than better. For context, I'm a mom to an 11-month-old and recently started working out again. Any idea what's going on or what I should do?

That could be gastritis or muscle cramp,take adequate rest and consume bland diet for a better result.

I've got a sore throat that I'm pretty sure is an infection, and my tonsils are kind of swollen too. I've been coughing a bit, but there's no fever. Should I be worried about this, or is there something I should be doing to feel better?

Consider consulting a primary care physician or an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist for a proper evaluation, as your symptoms suggest a possible viral or bacterial throat infection, and they may prescribe antibiotics if necessary, or recommend symptom-relieving measures such as gargling with salt water, using a humidifier, and taking over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen.
