Suggest Treatment For Muscle Spasm Under The Rib Cage
I get charlie horses under my rib cage...right side. I have been suffering with terrible indogestion lately and with this indogestion I have pain in my left lung area under my shoulder blade. I take prilosec 2x a day. I am oon warfrin for past blood clots, and have a vena cava filter...thoughts??
The symptoms seem to be related to a muscle cramp. I suggest using a muscle relaxant such as Baclofen three times a day. I recommend using warm compresses for local application. I also suggest using magnesium supplement daily.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
