i had a very minor, almost cant even call it a fal 2 weeks ago. I have had extreme pain under and feels like through my left ribs and surrounding area. Sometimes a sharp pain in my back. My whole back is out of sorts now. xrays were negative for fractures. Ive been laying low, taking flexoril and advil to no avail. Any ideas what could be going on??? My partner is experiencing nearly the same thing only in the hip area. Could this be some sort of virus? I know it sounds ridiculous, but is it possible?
