Vague pain in ribs and back, can affect anyone. Pain is not a reason to panic, but an opportunity to understand their disease. Pain is a sign that you need to take some measures. In typical cases, pain in ribs and back are quite certain reasons.
Group of diseases in which under the rib cage
There are several underlying diseases:
- Gastrointestinal diseases – pancreatitis or inflammation of the pancreas, cholecystitis, diseases of the spleen;
- Injuries – bruises and rib fractures, ruptures with the spleen;
- Diseases of the respiratory system – pneumonia, pneumonia;
- Kidney stones, particularly renal colic;
- Low back pain and herniated discs;
- Diseases of the peripheral nerves – intercostal neuralgia, and autonomic disorders, in which the pain is wandering across the surface of the back.
Do not try to determine the cause of your own, at least review back in the last 2-3 hours.
Pain in the digestive disorders are always associated with an error in the diet, and deterioration of chronic diseases provoked the offseason. Classic time the pain associated with cholecystitis – after 2-4 hours after a large meal, when the breakdown of the bolus, the necessary enzymes and digestive juices.
Back pain with pancreatitis it is very strong, "dagger", more on the left ribs, an attack can take up to two days. Elicit the deterioration of fatty foods, especially in combination with alcohol.
Painful ribs and back, when you stretch the capsule of the spleen in blood diseases, chronic indolent infections, sepsis, autoimmune processes. Such pain in the rib area with food have almost nothing in common.
Injury, in which pain in the back
The threat is of injury of the spleen and liver, your tears. These authorities – parenchymatous, composed of actively functioning tissue, which is limited to the capsule.
Parenchyma – the main fabric body of the same function. Thus, the liver parenchyma is composed of hepatocytes.
The structure of this fabric is soft, there are very few support elements. To resist mechanical loads of the parenchyma cannot. When you break the capsule cage "out of order". Such relief the threat of great loss of blood, because the blood vessels in the parenchyma literally everywhere.
If any impact or injury in the rib area of the person who is required to send to the hospital and discharged from it only if it does not detect any signs of internal bleeding.
The threat also of a hematoma in the retroperitoneal space, in which the back hurts the back. This happens when damage to the kidney and the adrenal gland, and duodenum 12. The case not only with pain, under the ribs on the back from behind, but sudden weakness, accompanied by a drop in blood pressure.
In comparison with the rupture of the liver or spleen broken ribs, a lot less risk. It is only necessary to ensure that the piece punctured the pleural cavity.
The pleura and kidneys
Pain in the back and the ribs can be dry pleurisy when the pleural layers RUB against each other. This is possible in the case of advanced tuberculous process, cancer processes in the lung. This pain increases with every movement, cough or sneezing. Also worrying, shortness of breath, and in the nasolabial triangle appears blue.
If any pain in the chest or back, it is advisable to perform an ECG to exclude myocardial infarction.
Resciesa pain in the back and ribs is on the release of substances from the urinary tract. It is particularly difficult to waste urate – stones consisting of potassium and sodium salts of uric acid. In appearance they are similar to beans. They are impressive in size, very dense. In the ureter, should be carefully expanded to skip this stone.
The oxalate is less dense small, easy to crumble, but they hurt on the way to the inner part of the urinary tract, necessarily causing inflammation.
Neurological causes
This is a variety of violations of nerve roots arising from the spinal cord. The spine can be damaged by a hernia, to be squeezed in the bone canal, the muscles, a piece of the vertebra, the ligaments of the arch of the vertebrae. Pain in the back and ribs are very strong, sometimes it is even impossible to breathe.
A lot of problems – intercostal neuralgia, when a burning pain permeating every breath, it hurts all of the back and chest. This disease is a complication of the degenerative processes in the spine and not only. Contribute to the development of metabolic disorders, the carrier of viruses, endocrine diseases and disorders of the heart rhythm or myocardial contractility, when tissues do not get enough nutrition and oxygen.
Clear is the mechanism for the development of autonomic disorders, in which the wavelike change of physiological parameters (respiratory rate, heart rate and blood pressure), all accompanied by a migrating pain in the back and ribs.
