Pain in right rib cage
I am 18 now, however, around 5 years ago I did something to my right rib cage as a result of physic trauma. There is a visible change in the alignment of my rib cage. When I run (e.g. in football) it feels like my rib is poking into my lung and this causes a lot of pain to the point where i cannot run for more than 5 minutes. I also have a snapping scapula on the same side (started about a year ago). I explained these symptoms (except the snapping scapula as it is new) to my doctor after the trauma however he said that they cannot do anything about it. I had to leave my passion for football. However I am in university right now an want to pick up the sport again. I need help.
