Is Lower Rib Pain Due To Previous Herpes Infection?

Intermittently I get lower right rib pain at same time as thoracic pain and right side t/s spasms. My spine is tender the full length. The spasms have an 'edgy ' feel , not sure how to explain. I have used TENs for spasms with a degree of success. I was diagnosed with herpies yrs ago when I had blisters mid back. Would this pain be related? My clavicle (L) side has been very tight pre the spasms and thoracic/rib pain

Orthopaedic Surgeon, Joint Replacement 's  Response
Herpes zoster is a painful condition and it can be painful for long time even years. Pain of herpes is more like streching, burning ,deep burrowing in nature. I would recommend you to start amytryptalin tablet once daily. This is good for this type of pain. Soon you will feel better, Also you can take Neurobion tablet for nerve growth.
