Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am having pain (5-7 on a scale of 10) bilaterally just below my breasts. The pain has been bothering me for several months but is getting worse and more frequent. It does get more noticeable with increased activity and is beginning to interfere with my daily activities. Physical activity and exercise are intolerable at this point. There is no rash, redness or swelling. It feels like it is between my ribs and burns most of the time but also stings or stabs at times. By the end of the day, it almost takes my breath away and I have no choice but to lay down to rest. I have not had any injuries or accidents. I have had a complete hysterectomy. I do have a gallbladder but my hydascan was normal 2 years ago. My only health issue is osteoarthritis which I take several Celebrex, neurontin, ultram, multivitamins, hormones, Tylenol and nexium.
