A member asked:

Sharp pain below right ribcage after baby fell on me?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Chest pain: Sharp pain especially on deep inspiration may mean a rib crack. If the pain is under the rib cage, it could be caused by liver trauma. Should the pain be persistent, consult your doctor or go to the ed.
