    Hi

    I have the same pain down the right side for me in the rib area and breast down the arm and into the hand i go ice cold and have no use of my hand. I was told by the pain doctor that it was due to the pressure put onto the nerves in the spine due to cs. When the pain is at its worst breathing hurts and only pills and bed helps........Im 48 but feel 148!!!! sad

    welcome to the club, i have a feeling like having a bad chest infection, i'm not sure it would class as pain. although if it hurts to breathe, i suppose it is. i was told it is referred pain, and the pain comes from the intercostal muscle. i was told maybe muscle relaxants may help although i havent tried them.
