I ve been to the chiropractor 3x s in 6 days for left side stabbing back pain. I was told it was a rib out of place. It hurts worse instead of getting better. Hard to sit or lay down. I ve been icing it & taking care not to twist or turn.It seems my left side is extremely tight. Thanks! Diane
Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Going through your query it seems that is muscular pain(muscle pull). It is likely to be relieved by analgesics (diclofenac 50 mg three times a day) with muscle relaxant. I think my advice will be of some help to you.
