Okay well, i've just recently turned 17 and over my spring break I didn't get out my and i've been sat at my computer alot catching up with school work and staying up late to finish it. Recently i've been having these aches on my right side rib cage and on my arms, they don't disrupt me from doing things, it's just there, it doesn't really hurt it's just a little tiny bit bothering, should I be scared? is this normal? and should i get checked out by a doctor?
To be honest, i've been really scared about alot of things, such as, heart attack and cancer. I get worried over 1 symptom, and i'll only have that symptom for a day and i'll still be worried. I had it a long time ago but it went away, it's just the more time i spend at a computer the more i seem to worry. maybe it's because the pains come with discomfort. But that's just what i want to hear, thank you :)

Its probably the position you are in, especially with using the mouse with your right arm etc.
Dont worry about heart attack's and the usual 'right arm pain etc' as at your age, its incredibly rare.
Just try sitting somewhere different for a couple of days and if its really bothering you, get it checked out for piece of mind :)Posted 2 years ago # -
It's probably from what you've been doing. It wouldn't hurt to get checked by a doctor in case there may be something else going on.
If not, take something for pain and see if it helps. Take medicines in moderation. Don't take more than it says on the instructions.
Take care.Posted 2 years ago #
