Hi I have a dull pain in my upper right side of my back rib cage area. It feels as though it had a connecting point to just under my top rib in the front on my right. It s hard to get comfortabe when I lie down and when I am sitting in bed leaning slightly forward it hurts too....as though my underside bra is digging in. Pain is considerably less when I am up and walking about. I ve been taking ibuprofen for 3days and the doctor gave me naproxen which I took for 4 days but there is no difference at all.if it was a muscle issue ( which I thought it may have been) I thought it would have reduced by now but it s the same as a week ago. (Reasonably sudden onset 1 week ago). I would appreciate some advice. Thank you.
