Suggest Treatment For Recurring Breaking Of Ribs While Having Underactive Thyroid

I ve broken about 6 ribs in the last year. I ve had tests for different things and I also have Underactive thyroid. I can break them quite easily just by leaning on something hard when I hear a loud click then pain follows instantly then nothing until the next day. I broke one two days ago and it s pai and there s a constant click. I ve kind of gotten used to the pain but using strong pain killers. Could you shed any light on what it could be?
