Can costo affect outer rib
Posted , 5 users are following.
I am a 38-year-old mother of a 2-year-old weighing 39 pounds who i lifted daily multiple times forever in a day.. After scrubbing crayon off the wall aggressively with 2 large Mr. Clean erasers down to shreds, i was told i had costochondriits. I have suffered with this since July of 2015... off and on. My question is this. Can it affect the side ribs under the armpit? Im guessing it the fifth rib down by the breast on the outside but I have a tender spot on that rib on the outside if i touch it.. i have pain withotu touching it as well. Its constantly sore but alot of this too is bad posture related as I have a touch of scoliosis affecting the left lower rib in the front, which sticks up when i lay flat on my back. I have pain under my left breast in the rib as well. Thanks for reading.

Anyways, this same chiropractor works the muscle as well as bone and when this rib pain started it was entirely in both lower ribs. he told me i have an intercostal neuritis and have hot points. he touches them and i about go off the table but he gets them calm. My bad posture at my desk job where i type for 9 hours a day 7 days a week doesnt help this any. I also have another chiropractor i see who adjusts the ribs. i have only see him twice but he has helped some. i feel tremendous relief the day of treatment. I also see a massage therapist every 2 weeks who told me i probably have rib dysfunction and to find a chiropractor who works with that. Hence, the new one im seeing. I see 2 chiropractors because its the only thing with medicaid that im not limited on treatment wise. im scared of MRIs. had normal chest and rib x-rays and dont take pills except for an occasional Aleve.
