question: I have extreme bloating and pain in the left side of my stomach - this also hurts under the left bottom rib, my left side is extremely sore but the bloating is getting worse all the time, i can visibly see the left side is slightly bigger than the right. I had a laprascopic fundiopilation 5 years ago, for a hernia and wonder if this is the cause ? I cannot eat right, and one meal fills me for the entire day - symptoms are worse after eating and i struggle with more thana a few mouthfuls of food
