What Causes Pain Between Rib Cage And Back?

I have been having pain located between my rib cage and when the pain is moderate or sharp it goes to my back. I just had ultrasound done to check my stomach and pancreatitis for problems. It came back showing nothing. I don t know about my blood test yet. But the doctor is not ruling out my heart. Pain seems to be in the wrong place I think. Is it possible

Hello,

As the ultrasound is fine the possible causes will be costochondritis and muscular pain.

If symptoms persist, it is better to consult a physician and get evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
