Why back ribs pain while sitting?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Could be a number : Of things. You will need to have a physical exam. It could be anything from disc problems to simple postural issues causing muscle strains. See a physician, but in the mean time, work on posture, core strength, ergonomics around a desk and weight loss. These things may help. Best of luck!
