I am having sharp pains since morning on the left side a little above the external oblique. i get the sharp when i breathe in or sneeze. what do i do?

Rib muscle injury?: If you are having difficulty breathing, or if the chest pain is constant, consider medical attention. If not, sounds like you may have sprained a rib muscle by sneezing. This is common. I recommend Tylenol (acetaminophen) and ice to the area of pain.
