Couple Thoughts: The pain comes on suddenly; does it leave suddently or stay for a while?Is it exacerbated by deep breathing or movement? What brings it on?Muscle spasm, nerve irritation, rib dysfunction all jump to mind.Could be other causes.A good history & phys. incl osteopathic hands-on exam may provide some answers.If rib problem/nerve irritation, maybe manipulation of rib/vertebra may help?
