Suggest Remedies For Pulled Muscle Under The Left Breast
Question: Two weeks ago I was scouring my bathtub. I reached to my right and felt a sudden pain like a muscle pull on my left side. I developed pain under my left breast and rib area. I am using Advil and it helps slightly but not enough. What can I do for this and how long will it last?
Brief Answer:
Rest, hot packs, medication
Detailed Answer:
Hi there.
Thanks for the query.
This could be localised muscle spasm. Apply hot packs to the painful regions. Avoid straining or doing any heavy activity on that side.
Stop Advie. Take Tablet Diclofenac with Thicolchicoside combination twice a day for 5 days after meals and Tablet Ranitidine 150mg twice a day for 5 days before meals.
It should get relieved in 5 days.
I hope I have answered your query.
I will be available to answer your follow up queries.

Dr. Aashish Raghu
