Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I broke two ribs on my right side three months ago. I convalesced for two months plus and had my internist check to see if I was healed. I had visited her because I continued to have pain in my right rib cage. I have returned to swimming moderately (starting with 200 yards to start and building to 500 yards.) I have experience pain in my rib cage on the right side and latissimus dorsi. At night when I lie down to sleep if I lie on my back I have strange gurling sounds in my right chest area and I experience back discomfort. Sleeping on my left side allows me to go to sleep. I've had a recent blood test and all findings were normal. I've begun to have some slight discomfort in my left chest in the last day or so. I'd appreciate your thoughts on the matter. I intend to go to a walk in clinic tomorrow.
