How To Diagnose The Presence Of Extra Rib?

i buldged two disks in lower back a year ago. Shortly after i have arm and neck trouble with numbness and tingling and pain. I had an MRI on my neck then. Although i have had physical theraphy the pain and random numbness is still there. It also switches sides. It started on the left for months, then right for months, now it is back on left. A chiropractor always said i had a rib out of place.



How do i know if I have an extra rib. Would it show on neck MRI?
