What to do with the rib pain?

I have a pain under my rib cage/towards my back?what is it?

  • So yesterday evening this pain began under my rib cage, i was just sitting down and boom i got it/ weird/ the pain is on my left rib cage/ its just below the ribcage, its like right UNDER the rib cage, but its more towards my back (like parellel to my shoulder blade ) whenever i stretch my thorso towards the right, the pain will come out/ but since last night to this morning the pain has eased out/ im sure ill be ok (i hope) but what might this be? did i somehow stretch a muscle? i dont have any chest pains, nor lower back pains/ i do have a sore throat as of right now(not really that bad just a little sore throat)/ i dont have any diarreah or gas issues/ i have been working out for 2hrs during the weekdays for PE class thanks

It sounds most like a strained muscle but here are a couple of (less likely) things to consider: 1. A kidney stone can give you sharp pains in your flank. This is normally "knock you down and make you cry" kind of pain. Your kidney is actually located more towards your back, but the pain can occur anywhere on a line from your mid-back, around your flank and down to your groin area. Sometimes it will radiate down this whole course. 2. Your spleen is on that side of your abdomen. You said you have a sore throat. Infectious mononucleosis can give you enlargement of your spleen, which is USUALLY painless but can cause some discomfort. This can sometimes lead to splenic rupture (which is a pretty bad thing to have happen). Mono, though, typically makes you really, really sick (not just a little sore throat). If you have been mostly well, this seems unlikely. All things considered...probably a pulled muscle.
