A member asked:
Hi im 28 years old and i've been having pain on my left side near my breast and rib cage. i also have a whole bunch of unexplained bruises around that?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Trauma: The combination of pain and bruises suggests some sort of trauma to the rib cage region. Could it be from an ill fitting or overly stiff bra? Are you leaning against anything at home or at work. If the area is also tender to touch, it would point to injury or trauma causing pain and bruising.
