Right rib pain may require medications such as ibuprofen and other pain relievers and antispasmodics, but you need to be clear about what exactly is causing the pain, and you cannot blindly relieve the pain, as this can easily mask or delay the condition. There are more diseases that can cause pain around the right side of the rib cage, including soft tissue injuries caused by various traumas, rib fractures, but also cholecystitis, cholangitis, liver cancer and so on. Ordinary soft tissue injuries may not need treatment and slowly recover; if there is trauma wound, you can use topical antiseptic such as iodine povidone, keep it dry and wrap it with sterile dressing; if it is a minor fracture, you can take appropriate oral painkillers such as ibuprofen, diclofenac sodium, etc., and immobilize it with a chest strap, while serious fracture may need surgery. Cholecystitis, cholangitis, gallstones, liver cancer and other causes of right rib pain, in addition to antispasmodic painkillers such as scopolamine, diclofenac sodium, etc., may also need anti-infective treatment or surgery and other comprehensive treatment. It is recommended that patients with right rib pain go to the hospital and follow the doctor’s instructions for standardized treatment.
