I keep getting a lump on the right side of my ribs, feels like a bony mass and really hurtss. Has anybody else experienced this? I read on the internet that this could be related to Addisons.

    I have this and only on my right side lower ribs It goes from a tender spot to acute pain without warning and generally always a dull uncomfortable ache.

      Glad it isn't just me, I suffer in exactly the same way.  One side of my ribs is definitely swelled up. Not sure if this is linked to Addisons or not.  Mine just feels swelled up and painful.  Have you followed this up with your Doctor?  Maybe you need an scan or an Xray. Doesn't sound right.

      Have you had a diagnosis for this? I have had a CT scan very recently and I'm awaiting the results. If they say the scan is normal I won't be happy as something isn't right. The pain is from my chest to my lower to my lower abdomen.  Let me know how you get on, you need to get this checked out.  Sorry for the late reply.
