A member asked:
Sharp pain when stretching, breathing, or slight pressure on lower ribcage uunder my breast. what could this be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not breast: This sounds like rib pain, not breast pain. The muscles between your ribs can spasm, or your rib can be out of position which can cause pain. Have a good doctor of osteopathic medicine (D.O.) or chiropractic physician take a look. They can manipulate the rib as needed to improve the symptoms.
