Suggest Remedy For Painful Ribs Post Colonoscopy
I had a routine colonoscopy this morning at 7:30am. Nothing abnormal found and I was discharged with no problems. As the day has progressed, pain began and has increased to be now severe under right rib cage. Is painful to breathe deeply... Some gas but not much has been expelled. What should I do?

Hi,
It is not related to colonoscopy.
It might be due to conditions like costochondritis.
As a first step, you can take analgesics like Tramadol for pain relief.
If symptoms persist you can consult an orthopedician and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
