  • gut2glam asked: It seems like my lungs because everytime I breathe in- it hurts the most. But it's on my back under my rib cage, so ribs could be a possibility?

    Hey

    It could be… I had a sharp pain in my ribs awhile ago, and still sometimes get it depending on when (I still can’t find a common denominator). Anyways, I just wanted to clarify b/c it could be easily confused, and the muscles b/t your ribs (your intercostal muscles) could have been strained or pulled, and they take a long time to recover, and since you mentioned it hurts when you breathe, it could have been your rib muscles b/c your ribs do expand when you breathe. But since you said it’s on your back, it seems more like lungs. Hmmmm
