There are a number of conditions that can result in pain associated with the rib cage. The possible conditions range from less serious, but very uncomfortable, muscle spasms (intercostals, serratus ant. or post., iliocostalis, etc.) or inflamatory disorders (costochondritis) to more serious primary pulmonary pathologies. Your best option would be to make an appointment with an osteopathic or chiropractic physician who will be able to determine the appropriate course of action for your specific condition.
