See below: Which rib? Lower/middle/upper? Left or right side? Any history of trauma to rib cage? Pain primarily with breathing but lessens when hold breath? How long has pain been present? See pcp for evaluation of ribs, abdominal organs, chest. May need imaging studies. If sweaty, nauseated, pain in arm/neck, call ambulance to go to er.
