Hello, I been having pain under my left rib it happens only when I’m sitting in a car for more then 15 minutes, first my hands and feet start tingling then my face and then something inside my left rib starts pulsing and it starts hurting! It feels like some one is poking me with a knife, I had some x ray done today btw.

Im assuming u have also spoken to, n or seen ur gp? ILL assume blood tests will be next for ya if ur xray turns out negative.

Make sure u write all ur symptoms down to relay to ur gp or etc...

I would ask the gp for a heart workup.

Best to ya.

Hey again hippolove1! Just noticed you had replied to this post I feel like I'm following you around!!! Once again you've provided some sage advice - especially about writing symptoms down. I take a note to my GP on every monthly visit.

Sometimes all those connective tissues, the muscles and tendons, that hold our body together are a bit weak and can't hold us up in all the postures that we put the body through.

My son has something called hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos (sometimes called symptomatic hypermobility) and he gets into pain within 15 minutes of being in the car or sitting in certain positions. So not all pain in within the rib cage is cardiac, but if you think it is and get anxious about it, it can make the pain feel worse.

I am glad you are getting an x-ray today, but it might not show anything if it is to do with your soft tissues.

I hope everything turns out ok for you. Anything that's out of the ordinary certainly calls for medical attention. The times I had pain under the rib put me in hospital for kidney stones - twice. One for removal of gallbladder & then the little buggers came back in the canal/tube (or something like that - it was about 5 years ago & I suffer fibro fog!). But no tingling etc. Sending positive vibes your way.

I've had pain for approximately 5 years in left ribs. Not sure what caused it. One doctor laughed at me and said next time you come in I will open you up and find problem. Otherwise I have had trigger point injections in my ribs 3 times and once in spine. Done chiropractor and massages to no avail. Run out of ideas. If you find a solution let me know what you had done. I've tried everything except " being opened up by an 80 y/o surgeon".
