What Causes Pain In Rib Cage Of A Diabetic Patient?

Hello, I m a 53 year old male in decent health but at Type 1 diabetic. I m experiencing pain that envelops my entire rib cage front and back. Feels like a muscle pull. No fever, no cold or cough symptoms. Does this sound like the flu. Thank you! Cristian

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, no this may not be the sign of any flu but it could be the muscular spasm condition due to poor posture in sleeping it might have happened, you can try Tab Chlorzoxazone with Diclofenac once in day and no need to worry about this, hope this information helps.
