Can MS make your ribs hurt?

I know when I was pregnant my ribs would hurt but I just noticed weeks ago that it was all the time and not just when I'm pregnant. It's only when I breath in.

Thanks for any responces

Hello and welcome. Do you have MS? If so, the symptom you describe is most likely the MS hug. Not hug-like at all, really, is it? But that's what they call it.  It's a series of muscle spasms between the ribs.

Welcome to our forum.  I was dx'd w/MS in November.  For many years even prior to my diagnosis, I have suffered with severe rib pain.  Sorry you are going through so much pain.

I've been having rib pain (towards my back) for a while now - hurts to reach towards my backside (for shots or even to pick something up off the floor while seated, for example) and feels like my ribs are overlapping and then spasming... not pleasant - I don't think it's bad enough to be 'the hug' which sounds more dramatic - this is always in the same spot, and only goes away when I stretch to the opposite side quite aggressively...

anyone else have that kind of specific rib pain?
feels like nerve pain to me, so probably something MS-y, but who knows?

Peace!
