I'm a bit concerned because I've been feeling some slight pain in my lower left rib area for the past 10 days. It's mostly noticeable when I lie down on my bed for a few seconds. It doesn't feel like the rib bones themselves are hurting, but more like something underneath or nearby them. I've never smoked and haven't had any lung issues in the past, but I did have COVID about a year ago. Do you think this could be something related to my lungs or heart?

I've had this pain three times last year, and now it's starting up again. I'm really not sure what's going on, and I'm worried about it. Can you help me figure out what might be causing this and what medicine I should be taking?

It sounds like you may be experiencing recurrent episodes of pain. Without a specific diagnosis, it is difficult to recommend a precise treatment. However, for general pain relief, you can try taking acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain. If the pain persists or worsens, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I'm looking over my blood CBC report and noticed that my RDW-CV is 15.2 and my MPV is 11.3. I'm not sure what these numbers mean. Plus, I've been running a fever for the last three days. Could these results be related to my fever? Should I be concerned about these levels?

Your CBC report shows a slightly elevated RDW-CV (15.2%) indicating a moderate variation in red blood cell size, which can be a sign of iron deficiency anemia, vitamin deficiency, or chronic inflammation; meanwhile, your MPV (11.3) is within the normal range; given your fever for the past three days, it's essential to consult your doctor to rule out underlying infections or conditions, such as a viral or bacterial infection, that may be causing your symptoms.
