I’m going to see Dr. Hansen July 9 2021. I had been going to Dr Shiroff but he wants to use a metal plate so I’ve read so many good this about Dr Hansen I made an appt. Did you ever have lower back pain or buttocks pain or sciatic pain when your ribs were slipping.
Hello, I am wondering if anyone in this group has heard of or has information or experience with SRS, Slipping Rib Syndrome? I am finding lots of contradicting information.
I have been having pain for 6 months, feels like up under my right side lower rib cage, after a fall where a heavy, pointy object was crammed up under my rib cage in this area. It is a sharp pain, not an ache, and really feels muscular, like I've done too many sit-ups. It presents when I move in certain positions. I have had a MRI which showed my liver, gallbladder, kidneys and pancreas were all good. I saw an orthopedic Dr. who never heard of SRS but had no explantion for the pain. Possibly 'damaged cartilage', that "takes a long time to heal". I also had a scope that found I had gastritis, no H-pylori found in 3 biopsies. My PCP prescriped OMEPRAZOLE, although I have zero symptoms like indigestion, stomach ache, regurgitation etc. I have no problems with my disgestion system, all is working well. I have been taking it for over a month, and no change in the pain. Of course I googled my symptoms and SRS came up. I dug a little deeper and it sounds like what I am experiencing. Thank you for your consideration.

Hello Candi, we saw Dr. Klinkner before Dr. Hansen.
Curious as to what happened with Dr Klinkner and why you went to Dr Hansen. Thankyou!
Dr. Hansen created the minimally invasive rib repair technique for slipping rib syndrome that Dr. Klinkner performs.
