Hello there. I can understand your concern. Ribs don't crack like that. The pain should subside by itself in sometime. If it doesn't, then get it checked out by a MD consultant physician in person for further evaluation and management. He will be able to help you further. Best regards. Dr. Anil Kumar Jain. Bangalore.
