Suggest Treatment For Sharp Pain In The Ribs
First I get a lump in my throat like I ve swallowed a lot of air it travels down to my right side under my ribs with sharp pain that is even in my back like a knife all the way through. This has been going on over a week now. I have fibromyalgia migraines and arthritis take medication twice a day and have not changed anything. I currently have a large canker sore on the outside of my mouth on the right side.

use combiflam along with pantoprazole for rib pain which is called as costochondritis which is a self limiting process.Give hot compress daily.If conservative approach fails give steroid in rib joints . Do physiotherapy for affected muscles.
