Overweight could...: 75 y/o says, Aching under breast on ribs when I get up it is worse,...I am overweight... The overweight could be a contributing factor. As could be poorly fitting clothing; too tight or too loose bras etc. Exercise and frequent change of position especially if one is sedentary. 75 is still young to begin new fitness activities. of course arthritis is a possibility but not so likely
