Upon waking in the morning, my torso feels bruised

by bridram, Aug 18, 2007 09:27AM
I go to sleep and when I wake up, my torso (under rib cage) and abdomen feels extremely bruised.  After showering and moving around a bit, it will ware off.  This process is repetitive every night/morning.  What could this bruising-like pain possibly be associated with?  Thank you.

More info on me:  

By the way, I am a healthy 29yr. old female and I have had this issue for about a year and a half.  I have gone to a doctor several times and I have had an MRI done.  The only thing they found was that I had a small contusion near my spine (upper back).  Doctor said it would go away in a couple of months, but, I am not sure if it has anything to do with my rib cage and upper abdomen brusing-like pain occuring after I sleep.  

Any input is greatly appreciated.

Thanks
