A member asked:
I have a sharp pain in my front lower left rib cage when i cough, i also have a small tickle in my throat which is causing the cough. any ideas on what this might be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cough related: Your rib cage pain may be cough related, but the underlying cause of your cough should be determined. Place a heating pad on the rib cage, monitor for fever, drink clear liquids and if the symptoms continue please see your PCP.
