Question: My physio says that poor posture is causing pain in my right side ribs!.How can this be!?
Answers:
Slipping Rib Syndrome:
In many cases a rib slips out of place because the ligaments that hold the ribs to the sternum, the sternocostal ligaments, have been weakend!. Without muscles to hold the ribs in place, weakened ligaments allow slipping of the rib!. This in turn causes further stretching of the ligament, producing severe pain!.

The loose ribs can also pinch intercostal nerves, sending excruciating pains around the chest into the back!. Sternocostal and costochondral ligaments refer pain from the front of the chest to the mid back!. Likewise, costovertebral ligament sprains refer pain from the back of the rib segment to the sternum where the rib attaches!.

poor posture can cause a whole lot of problems with back and hips!. Thats why so many suggest wearing orthopedics in your shoes!. Right now I have a cast on my right leg and it is throwing everything out of balance so know I will have to do rehab when done to get things back in shape again!. Make sure you practice good posture and do some stretching exercises to strenghten your muscles, we get lax and slouch in our chairs and don't walk with our shoulders back, and just plain don't pay attention to our posture until we have something that hurts!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
