Hello,

As you have done all the blood routine which turned out to be normal. Why don't you opt for some simple breathing exercises and gentle massage over the area.

As you didn't mention about under which rib it is practically difficult to answer it. But then if it is the rib cage then you can take an x-ray to figure out the status of the ribs positioning and also the lungs tissue.

If it is below the rib cage that is below the diaphragm level than you should definitely opt for Ultrasound scanning of the abdomen.

At times small discomforts are made unnoticed by a physician just by the blood routine, but on a safer side taking one of the above as required should reveal if there is something really wrong or not.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
