my ribs started hurting about 4 weeks ago I had a cough for awhile but it as been gone for two weeks. but the pain in my ribs keep increasing. it hurts when I take deep breathes, laugh, clear throat, hic-up, sneeze, and cough. Also hurts when I move a certain way. Also sometimes when I talk it hurts. Feels like something is moving and pushing on it. Stomach burns when I sit. I just don t know what is wrong

Welcome to HCM
i appreciate your concern about your health
What is your age?Is this at side of the chest or mid chest?
The rib pain may be due to exertion while coughing.it can be stomach ache too.
Try taking a painkiller other than NSAID like tramadol and a omeprazole 20 mg once daily before breakfast.this for stomach burn and ache.the pain will go away if it is stomach pain or due to exertion.If it still persists,get a chest xray and concern a physician.
