Pregnant - Awful pain in ribs on right side?!


Question: For the past couple of weeks I have been experiencing a nasty dull, achey pain in between my ribs on my right side, near my bra strap. My OB says it may just be ligament stretching, and my chiropractor did an adjustment on me but the pain is still there. It seems fine in the morning, then as the day progresses, it gets worse and worse until bedtime.

What could this be, and how do I fix it? I am 24 weeks pregnant.

I think that the Ligament answer is true.... remember that your belly is now pulling and stretching all of the upper torso. Your body isn't use to it. And your not going to feel it getting better until after the baby is born

Thought this isn't the answer that you were looking for I think that it is the correct one
If it's not directly on the breast, try ice and heat to help the healing

Good health and good Luck.............Yar

Remember that ist's not a bad thing to annoy your doctor about it... Get a second opinion to help ease your worries

Also with the moving of your hips... It changes how your back is aligned , you may be piching a nerve. Give that some thought

i think you should go too see a docter becuase you are risking your child and mabye yours it could be nothing but it could be something aswell soo better to get it checked out xx

GO to the doctors. dont put your childs life at risk
