My left rib hurts when I breath and my left shoulder(neck) is too?!


Question: My left rib hurts when I breath and my left shoulder(neck) is too.?
When I cough, laugh and breathe in deeply it hurts so bad. I can't sleep at all. I went to the doctor and he said I pulled a muscle under my left rib. I went to see him yesterday and this started on Saturday. My question is how can a walk in client doctor know about this.? wouldn't I need to be ex rayed for him to see.? Do you think I should go and get a x-ray done.?.? I will miss a day of school though.

Ten points best answer.

Answers:
I have the same thing right now, but my muscle is pulled under the rib on my back, hurts like a mongrel, even if you did think you broke or fractured a rib which I have the Tshirt on that one as well, they can't do anything you just have to let it heal itself, and a muscle takes alot longer than a rib to come good just have to be patient, and the muscle in my back is taking a while been 6 weeks so far but is finally coming good, PS I am 43 so it is bound to take longer, don't know how old you are, but you will bounce back quicker if younger than meHealth Question & Answer
