I am 34 years old, female and have a desk job. For the last 2 months or so, sneezing caused a sharp pain in my left rib cage, right under my bra band. However in the last 2-3 weeks the pain increased after I did a small session of workout. It started paining while bending and coughing along with sneezing. I took 3-4 ibuprofens and it went away only to come back after 3-4 days. I have been taking myoril and intagesic for the last 3-4 days but the pain refuses to subside. I have a sitting work schedule all day but I was resting all weekend. I have no fever or issues breathing but have very slight wheezing today. I looked up and the symptoms seem very close to pleurisy but the pain is not reducing even after 5-6 doses of medicines which is concerning to me. I have no other symptoms except pain the left rib cage and slight wheezing. Please suggest what to do.
