Hi,
If your thyroid hormones are low treatment will be thyroid supplements like Thyroxine. It should be started only after consulting endocrinology doctor. For pain below rib cage I would like to advise X-ray of the chest posteroanterior view to rule out chest pathology and minor fracture.
You need to visit chest physician for detailed chest examination. Meanwhile start tablet Ultracet twice a day for pain relief.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Jayesh Vaza
