Last saturday I was at work, didn t feel well. Checked my blood sugar level,363. Shortly after I started vomiting intensely, several times. Called my Dr.and got it under control. All week it feels like my leftside ribs are bruised and really hurt. I ve been taking ibuprofen, which helps, but wears off and then I m in alot of pain again.

Hello,Thanks for your query.After going through your query I came to know that you are suffering from muscular pain due to excessive vomiting several times. It lead to muscle fatigue. Treatment of it is rest and analgesics (diclofenac/ibuprofen three times a day after meals).Muscle relaxant such as thiocolchicoside can be added Vitamin B-complex and Vitamin C supplementation can used to promote healing. It may take a week time to relief. However you can get his chest x ray done to exclude bony pain. You can discuss with your treating Doctor about it.I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query. Take care.
