Be examined: There are several reasons for the pain ranging from a pulled rib, muscle strain, or some problem with you uterus and pregnancy. It is smart to go to your doctor and have an exam and ultrasound to make sure the uterus and baby are fine and the physician can examine the area and see if it is just a strain muscle or bruised rib
