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 get muscle spasms in my right rib cage, that literally hurt so bad, it takes my breath away. In order to relieve it, I have to breathe in, out through my mouth to relax, and then it goes away. Always occur if I stretch to far, lasts for only about 10 seconds if I relieve it by the above. Thanks, Gail RN
HI Well come to HCM Such symptoms could be due to muscular spasm and most probable cause could be hyperacidity and this need to be ruled out first and for that I would like to suggest the following treatment. 1) Tab Omeprazole 40 mg once in day 2) Tab Domperidone 30 mg once in day avoid coffee, smoking, alcohol prior to bed, take care and have a nice day.
