Pain in my left side

For awhie I’ve been feeling pain on my left side of my ribs. every time I touch it it hurts. I think it’s my ribs. When I touch it it hurts. my mom told me when I lose weight it would go away, but I don’t know cause I’ve been workig out still waiting for it to stop hurting.

Answer #1

I experienced the same thing when I was a teen. It’s the intercostal muscles which are in pain, not the rib itself. Everytime I took a deep breath, it hurt like hell. The doctor never explained why or what caused it, but said it’s nothing to worry about and that it’s not an uncommon thing to happen. It went away after a few weeks.
