What Causes Pain In Ribs Along With Pulsations In Nipple?
I crashed my bicycle yesterday and landed on my right side. I heard a pop as if something separated. It now hurts along my right side ribs and when I manipulate it just right f my upper chest/right nipple. I don t know whether I need help or not. 62 years old, no money, no health care. When I massage it at about 9:00 off the right nipple I hear popping.
