Q. I have sharp pain below the breast and near the rib cage. What could it be?
Hello doctor,
I am a 27-year-old female. I am experiencing sharp pain in the area below my left breast and near the rib cage. Could it be something serious?
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I have read your query carefully, before any prescription I want to know few things,
1. The exact location of pain?
2. Type of pain like sharp, cutting, and duration of pain?
3. Any previous history of any disease?
4. Hypertension and diabetes?
5. Current medication?
Thank you doctor,
The exact location of the pain would be right below my left breast. It is a sharp pain and occurs when I move suddenly. I was diagnosed with PCOS last year, and it is under control now. And my BP ranges from low to normal. No other history than this. I take Myoberb as suggested by my gynecologist for PCOS. No other medication. I workout in the gym every day.
