What Causes Pain Around Ribcage Post Treatment For Bronchitis?
A few weeks ago I had bronchitis and went through 2 rounds of antibiotics. Now my left side bear my rib cage is hurting from about the middle aligned with the shoulder blade area. Doesn t hurt to the touch (don t suspect a fracture or muscle issue).... But hurts when coughing or breathing. I am a smoker as well. Not cardiac- been tested there already. Thoughts on potential causes?
