What Could Cause Severe Pain In The Rib Cage Area Associated With Night Sweats?

Pain in ribcage and upper right of my back. Not severe pain but nagging pain that comes and goes. Never completely goes away but sometimes more severe and noticeable than others. Trouble sleeping, sometimes days. Night sweats frequent or just to hot to fall asleep even in a cool room.

Hello,

As the symptoms are associated with sweating, an ECG must be taken to rule out cardiac causes even though it is unlikely.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
