Experienced Pain On Right Ribcage And Caused Shortness Of Breath. Pain Comes Periodically. Right Medication?

I experienced very sharp pain on right side of my ribcage right below my breast and deep inside and it caused shortness of breath. I could only sip a short breaths in. The pain lasted for a few minutes 5 or so, then it went away and came back later for a shorter period of time. I was sitting down at that time not doing much of movement at all. I remembered same pain while driving my car to work. Thank you for your answer.

Hi,
Thanks for your question.
This pain may be a sign of acute abdomen & may indicate some pathology of your liver or gall bladder. Any pathology in lower lung may also have a role. You are advised to visit a physician as soon as possible to have a thorough systemic review & specific treatment.
Take care.

Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having costo-chondritis giving this problem.
Take some analgesic medicine as and when required.
Apply some analgesic cream locally.
Ok and take care.
