Hello and Welcome to HCM,
I had gone through the case and found that it might be due to most probably by cough because some time long duration of cough causes swelling of interstitial tissue of rib.
So for precaution you go for some investigation-
Kidney Function Test.
Urinalysis and culture.
If required then ultrasound of lower abdomen.
Hope everything will be normal and take any decongestant cough syrup.
