My ribs have been hurting for the past year?!?

Question

Well i am 16 years old and i weight 51kg.

Could they hurt cuz im skinny? But then again they only hurt when i lay on my sides or turn suddenly.

It kind of worries me, because i havent been to the doctors, cuz i thought it wasnt a serious thing but now its hurting even more :/

Even if i bend over or turn around or sometimes when i walk it hurts :(

It can't be my bra,they arent tight at all or sometimes i dnt wear them at all... onli my bikinis (summer time) :/

What could this be? And do many people have it?

Answer 2

it doesn't sound right at all, i suggest you go see a doctor as son as you can, see a pediatrician.

Answer 3

No this isn't normal at all. Your ribs shouldn't hurt. People do sports, you know? And even their ribs don't hurt.

Please for your own sake don't go ask around on yahoo. Go to a doctor.

We can't see you or do tests. And most of us haven't studied for this.

Answer 4

maybe you broke one of your ribs. Did you get into a rough sport recently and hurt yourself? car accident? Sometimes it takes a while for signs to show up, go get an x-ray!!

Answer 5

Go to Doctor.

Answer 6

hello? are you demented in the head? its time to go to the doctors! when you breath (and your ribs expand) does it hurt? JUST GO TO THE DOCTORS! no presseure, GET UP AND DRIVE AWAY, slow and steady wins the race, STOP STARING AND DO SOMETHING!

with much love,

I had the same problem for a long time. Believe it or not, you could have some vertebrae out of alignment in your back. When the vertebrae in your mid-back shift out of place, they pinch nerves which can travel around to your ribs. I've been seeing a chiropractor and doing physical therapy and it has improved about 90%.
