Just returned from the er sudden sharp cramp feel under right breast and rib area, eased off a little but still hurts when move dr says muscle spasm?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Intercostal Muscles: Pretty common. Anti-inflamatories, ice, rest. It's usually pretty short lived. If it hurts more when you move and take a deep breath it's likely not cardiac. See your doctor as an outpatient in a few days if it continues.
