back rib pain
hey guys so about 2 weeks ago i had H1N1. I had a really bad cough that's just now going away. So about a week and a half ago i started getting this rib pain on my left side more in the back and i could barely even let myself cough all the way or anything. it seemed like it was getting a little better but then last night it came back and hit really hard. I can barely even move. when i first started feeling it i called the 24 hour doctor and they said maybe i bruised a muscle from coughing but i feel like it shouldn't still be this bad and it shouldn't hurt this bad either. i can barely breathe it hurts so bad. do u guys think it could be a bruised rib?? or any ideas? idk but it hurts and im one day past my due date...
It definitely sounds like a muscle, you can ice it to try to relieve some pain. I feel you on the Tylenol thing. Useless crap lol you're almost done though, good luck!
I took tylenol but it doesnt even help. It just ***** that i can go into labor any second and this pain is unbearable
It could be pulled muscles or even a bruised or cracked rib... not much you can do but take tylenol for the pain and let it heal on its own
