What could cause my ribs to constantly pop out of place? causes lots of chest pain & back pain. i get adjusted regularly but they revert soon after.

Rib problem: If your ribs are truly "popping out of place" this may be seen in patients with hypermobility syndrome or other conditions in which there is laxity of the connective tissues. I recommend seeing a rheumatologist and would be happy to do a consult if needed.
