Rib Popping and Pain

2018-01-06 08:37:48
Hi! For the past two or three days, whenever I move the wrong way or even just laugh, I can hear and feel a painful pop in the left side of my ribs. The pain sticks around and has kept me up at night, and I can’t apply any pressure to the area without it hurting tremendously. There’s been no trauma to my chest or abdomen; I’ve been going about my normal daily routine, so I have no idea what caused this to start. There’s no bruising or swelling, but it is extremely sensitive.
