A doctor has provided 1 answer

Different causes: It's possible that there is a strained intercostal muscle or pinched nerve in the rib cage. A cracked rib may be present-is there a history of a rib cage injury? Cold or hot applications and if you can take them,NSAIDS like ibuprofen may help. See your Physician if symptoms persist.
