Coughing: No need to scan. Your muscles in the chest are spasming from so much trauma. Treat the cough. Stop the cigarettes and you will get better.

I think I may have slipped rib syndrome. I can feel something pointy right beneath the left-front side of my rib cage. I can move it with no pain but if I cough too hard or sit down for long periods of time it starts to hurt my upper abdomen and back?
