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.

I want to add there is no pain when touching the area.
