question: Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Please type your query here... Two months ago, I used to get up from bed in the morning with mild pain in the lowest rib (front side) sometimes on the left and sometimes on the right. The pain would disappear as the day progressed. About a month ago, this pain began to appear on the back side as well. The intensity and frequency increased. It also was now found in the evenings and night. Soon the pain became a shooting pain and unbearable from time to time. Nights became unbearable and prevented from sleeping. Pain killers eased the situation
