I injured my left side, around the rib area about a week ago. It had improved somewhat and then restarted again according to my activity level. Due to the Easter holiday my activities were increased due to guests visiting. I have resorted to wearing a corset to help limit the rib area mobility. I am wearing this 24 hours and I am concerned it will cause problems wearing it for long periods of time. The rib area is sore to the touch on the outside. I take the following meds. Xarelto, Flecainide Acet Tabs (for AFib), Diltiazem Hcl Er (Cd), Amitiza (for IBS), Paxil and Pravastatin.
