A member asked:

I am having horrible rib pain on my left side. it's sensitive to touch & move. it pops whenever i breathe out. have any suggestions?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Costo-chondritis: You may have costo-chondritis. The ribs come together at the end and join with a cartilage joint. Sometimes this joint is pulled apart or injured. It pops and is painful. Treat with anti- inflammatories and or cortisone injections. Rest is good too.
