A member asked:

My left side ribs pop in and out when i breathe deeply and become painful after sitting for a long period of time. have had this problem for about 3yr?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Floating rib: Can cause these symptoms. You can get an injection if pain gets real bad. As you get older, the cartilage will harden, and pain will go away, but it might take years.
