hi..not sure if this is the correct place to put this but I guess I'll start here. About 3 weeks ago I started feeling a pain/ache just below or on the bottom of my rib cage on the right side (about the middle of where the rib curves). It didn't get any better and now it is on both sides (left and right). It doesn't hurt all the time or when I breathe, just when I move certain ways or sit certain ways. At first I thought it might be a muscle pull or something as I kind of feels like that, but instead of getting better the discomfort is getting more frequent/worse. I recently had a 2 month bout with a recurrent sinus infection and was on cipro for a month. I know coughing too hard can cause something like this but this came after the sinus infection was over. I mention that only because a couple of health sites say that you can have an infection in that area which can cause pain. I have tried taking some otc Aleve and Motrin but hasn't really done much to help. Any ideas or suggestions? Thanks for everyone's help.
