Suggest Treatment For Severe Rib Cage Pain

I was beaten ad kicked in my ribs several years ago and continue to have pain in my ribs around the floating rib area. Is this intercostal neuralgia? I did have a dislocated floating rib which was treated by an osteopath but still have pain when I am walking
