[|Human|] I have a spot on the left side front just below an old rib fracture that periodically pains me if I am leaning over for a long time, like when sewing or working on something, or sleep tightly balled up with my knees drawn up. Is it possible that I have a bony protusion from that old injury that is causing the pain? When I straighten up or walk around, even exercise, it does not bother me.
[|AI|]  Hi, In my opinion your old fracture could exaggerate in a kind of manner showing nerve compression symptoms given in your history and released when you straighten your body during exercises. For now I suggest you avoid bad postures, avoid heavy lifting and vigorous movements, hot massages with topical muscle relaxants, painkiller only when needed will be effective for your case.
