Hi, I have a misshaped rib and i get seriously bad pain in it and its as if it stings inside, and sometimes i cant breathe because of stabbing pains, I have been on the internet and seen it could be a few things but it is really big and gets in the way of my sleeping, wearing clothes etc. If it s to do with calcium i can not help myself because i dont like milk and most other things with calcium in it. I would really love to know if I would need surgery to sort it out, as I would do anything to get rid of it, it hurts that much.
