What Is The Dull And Constant Pain Under My Ribs?

I for some reason feel pain in the center of my right side. I just used the bathroom, and now it is in pain when I twist a certain way but not in others. Also my doctor said I bruised or damaged my intercostal muscles and I believe I hurt it on that side but the pain is slightly under my ribs. It is a dullish pain that has now seemed to go away but I can t help but wonder if it is serious. I m an 18 year old female, who is 5 4 and about 160 pounds if that helps a suggestion of a diagnosis. Don t know if related but I also have felt a pinched nerve feeling on my hip, that was yesterday. I also have anxiety.

Orthopaedic Surgeon, Joint Replacement,  's  Response
Hello,
I have studied your case. There is nothing to be worried about as this pain seems to be due to muscle pull. And I do not think that it is related to hip joint problem. So I would recommend you following.
1.Hot water fomentation
2.Volitran ointment local application.
3.Tablet brufen is pain increases.
I hope these steps will be helpful for you. Let me know if there is any other followup questions.
thanks
