What Causes Pain In The Ribcage While Suffering From Chronic Cough?
My husband went to his doctor on 2/13/18 he had had chest cold for 2+ weeks with very hard cough, then a bruise was forming on his left chest wall with chest, rib pain. He did not have any trauma. The doctor ordered a left rib cage with PA chest/ US abdomen wall. The findings was negative. Now 3 days later the bruising is still there and he also has another huge hematoma over the left lower abdomen by his kidneys. This is happening from the inside and he states it s not painful? I m concerned he is a diabetic on Jentadueto, Jardiance, Trulicity. His doctor is not in office today and I have been waiting a call back from an associate all day.
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. Chronic cough can lead to chedt mussels pain even broken rib. He needs to take medication that stop caught. He can use desloratadine or codeine. The hematoma you refer cant go for a day. It needs some days do dissappear. This doesn't effects diabetes.
Take care. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
