Hi. I am trying to find if someone has any idea what causes a sharp sudden pain like something is pushing out of my rib under my breast. I move and sometimes I get this catch that is very painful. It is something like something is pushing out of my rib and hurts tremendously. I have to grab under my breast and rub it like I am pushing it back in to get it to subside. Sometimes I just turn a little and it happens. It seems to come more frequently now. My daughter said it is gas pockets can someone help me.
Thanks

Re:right Side Pain Under Breast And Above Rib
Hi! I had the same problem I say almost a year ago. But it is completely gone now.We may have different problems diagnosis but I would like to share with you and to all who have similar problems what my experience was. First, it was just a little pain that I did not think about it much. Then it became more painful everyday.It was only my right breast. It seems like underneath the breast. I let it go for a while hoping it will disappear but instead it was getting worst.The pain started creeping gradually everyday to the other breast, then to my shoulders then all the way to my back that I started getting scared. It became harder for me to go to sleep.I was so painful that every little movement in bed I can't do anymore.I cried a lot at night. I had to put pillows to my left and right side but it did not help.I tried to massage myself and sometimes I let my husband massage me but nothing help. I was still hoping it will go away that I still did not go see a doctor. Until one day while at work, I had a conversation with a friend that we laughed and I felt pain under my breast. I realized I cannot even laugh anymore. So, I told my husband that I need to see a massage therapist as my first priority. But my husband said I should see a doctor first. So I did see a general practitioner. The doctor did not do any lab test. She just checked my breast and told me there is nothing wrong with me. She did not tell me to go see another doctor and no advice either . No prescription given.So I told her what should I do but she said nothing to worry I don't have to do anything. I thought that was weard because I have all these pain. So I asked if it is ok to see a massage therapist and she said I can. It might help. But it was my opinion not hers. So I went to see a massage therapist. She massaged me, where the pain was all the way to the back. She told me to relax my body for a week. I did just a very light chores for a week. I noticed a big difference the pain started going away. Until now it is completely gone. Every pain might have a different cause so always see your doctor first because what I did might not work for you.

Did you ever find out what this was?
Hi there, I just saw your post and have been experiencing that exact same thing that you describe. This began happening when I was pregnant and now I've had it off and on for the past five years. Did you ever find out what was causing your problem? I'm wondering if it might be some sort of hernia?
