Rib issues!
Just wondering if anyone is in the same boat and has any advice! I’m currently just over 28 weeks and have had quite bad rib pain basically all the way through this pregnancy. I’ve had blocked nose and constant sneezing since early in the first trimester and every time I sneeze, it’s felt like my ribs are about to burst out my chest (and I’m not even being dramatic there it’s actual hell!)
It’s gradually gotten worse and more painful to the point sneezing is making me crazy anxious because of the pain. I then picked up some sort of throat/chest infection about 3 weeks ago that I can’t shake and have constant coughing fits despite being on antibiotics.
Last night I sneezed and felt a horrible grinding sensation in my right side ribs and since then it’s so painful when I move I was in tears! I’m okay when stood up but turning over, twisting, lifting things, breathing too deeply hurts like hell.
I’m not sure if this is “normal” rib pain or if I should speak to the doctors? If anyone has any similar experiences or knows how to reduce the pain please send over recommendations!
