Unfortunately, with the limited information you have provided, I cannot make a recommendation other than to seek medical attention to determine the cause of your symptoms.

Slight pain under the left rib with gas is not specific enough information to determine the cause. Such symptoms could be linked with a variety of disease processes including but not limited to splenomegaly (enlarged spleen), gastroenteritis (stomach flu), irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), pancreatitis, or kidney disease. The fact that you are experiencing gas may or may not indicate that the issue is in the bowels or gastrointestinal tract.

If these problems do not resolve within one week, worsen, or are accompanied by a fever, seek urgent medical attention. Pain is a physiological symptom that something is wrong and should not be ignored.

Once you determine the cause of your symptoms with the aid of a qualified healthcare professional some home remedies may be appropriate in supporting you regain full health.
