Sharp pain under ribs.

2018-11-18 06:09:52
I am having sharp pain under ribs on the right side of the chest while coughing, sneezing and deep breathing. It's been a week now. I tried ibrufen 400 mg for pain but it did not work. I am facing cold and cough since 1 week. This happened before once around 2-3 years ago but i did not take any medicines last time. It got normal in few week itself. I thought it was just because of coughing. Pain started again from right side n not on both sides.
