Hi Millie, if you live in the UK , could you ring 111 for advice.
Otherwise ring your GP surgery and tell them about the pain.
Hi we can't really give you much idea of what it could be over the net. You need to see your doctor for a diagnosis. x
I would definitely contact your GP and find out what's going on. Good luck. Xxxxx
.Hi Millie,
if you can take deep breaths without any pain i do not think it is anything serious, it could be you have pulled a muscle but even so speak to your doctor.
Whatever it is cannot be diagnosed on here. I agree you need to see a doctor.
I would get checked up and get reasured by your doctor especially having a lot of pain...lots of love glynis
Yes thank you everyone I'm going to see if I can get an appointment with my GP this week. Never had anything like this, I have had pneumonia but the pain was nothing like this & it's so out of the blue got me baffled....let you know what GP says

I just read your post from a year ago. What did the doctor say about your rib pain (if you don’t mind sharing). I have the same issue and it’s not getting any better.
