Suggest Remedy For Pain On The Ribs
My ribs on the right hand side are pretty sore and aching most of the time, it started about 3 weeks ago, i havn t been doing any lifting or any coughing or hurt myself in any way, the pain is there all the time but is worse at different stages through the day and night, when i lie flat in bed it can be quite sore to touch of if my bed sheet gets crumpled under me i have to straighten it as that is very uncomfortable. If I stand or sit in the same position for too long it gets sore too, I had my gall bladder out 2 yrs ago due to keep getting a constant stitch in my side so i know it s not that, please can you help
