Members responded to someone experiencing severe pain under the right breast with a low fever and headache, offering possible explanations and support. Several members suggested it could be costochondritis, an inflammation of the rib cartilage that can occur with rheumatoid arthritis, recommending warm baths and ibuprofen for relief, while others initially wondered about gallbladder issues before learning it had already been removed.
