[|Human|] 5 days ago I started experiencing extreme sharp pain in my back below my rib cage. I went to the chiropractor which then the pain was specific to my right side under my rib cage.At times it felt like labor pains.I was given pain killers and muscle relaxants which helped with the pain. They did urine and blood tests but everything came back normal.I have started my menstrual cycle today.Could this have caused such extreme pain?Could it be related at all?
[|AI|]  Hello, Thanks for your query. The pain at the bottom center of the rib cage could be due to a renal infection or a stone if the pain does not seem to be muscular in nature. This can be ruled out after getting an ultrasound scan done. If the pain is aggravated with deep breathing or coughing then a rib injury or a muscular sprain is likely. The other causes that need to be ruled out include lung infections like pleuritic. Stopping smoking might help in reducing the symptoms do hope that you have found something helpful, and I will be glad to answer any further query. Take care
