Hi
Welcome to healhcaremagic
After going through your query I concluded that you are probably having pleurisy as you have off and on pain below the ribs. Analgesic such as ibuprofen can be of benefit as it relieve pain and swelling. Vitamin B and C will help in recovery. You can discuss your doctor about it. Hope your query get answered. If you have any clarification then please don't hesitate to write to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. You can also write to me directly on below link:
