Recently I was pulling out weeds and as I pulled I twisted and felt a popping under right rib cage. It is now tender and really uncomfortable. Floating ribs are still tender to touch after a week and there is a sensation of fullness under the ribs on that side.
Hai this is traumatic injury to the chest. Injury to the chest is really painful, due to rich nervous supply. Please do not hold your breath due to pain as it can cause lung atelectasis. Please start with good painkillers, deep breathing exercises, incentive spirometry.u can apply local pain application gels like diclofenac. Take care good luck
