What Causes Back Pain And Lung Pain Under Rib Cage?
Hello. I had mid-back pain on my right side and had pains in my upper lung and lung under my rib cage. I took ibuprofin and went to the chiropractor. He didn t explain things well to me, so I m still wondering what happened. I am now, six hours later, able to draw a full breath but those areas still feel tender.
