Midback pain
Because of the ribcage, this part of the spine is inherently the most stable of the regions, but even so many people experience pain here. The symptoms can arise from the vertebral joints, muscles or ribs. This symptom can be connected with problems elsewhere and is often best solved as a part of a greater whole.
Ribs
The ribs can be a cause of extreme pain and discomfort, on occasion rivaling that of a heart attack. The pain can range from deep and “boring”, to sharp stabbing or burning, exacerbated by certain movements and activities. Ironically, this problem is, once more serious issues have been excluded, fairly quick and easy to solve.
