What Is The Remedy For The Pain In My Ribs With Scoliosis?
I have been having a weird pain all day. It feels like my ribs but doesn't hurt to touch anywhere to a certain extent. It feels like I have the wind knocked out of me. It hurts more when I get up from sitting. Could my ribs be out of alinement? I also have scoliosis.

Hi.
Which side of the body has the scoliosis concavity? IS the pain on the concave side or the other?
Rid dis-alignment can not be an acute problem unless there have been a direct or indirect trauma to them. This may be more by the muscle strains than the ribs themselves.
The remedy would be to take pain -killer medicines, local ointments, hot fomentation , rest , avoid strenuous activities. If necessary an opinion of a Doctor would help to rule out bigger problems.
