If you cough enough to make your ribs sore, a doctor's appointment is necessary to determine the cause, as you may break your ribs if it continues.

If your cough is productive = you cough up phlegm, then do not take cough suppressant medication and be sure not to swallow the phlegm. An expectorant will help.

If you have a dry cough = no phlegm, then a cough suppressant (antitussive) will do you wonders. However, most OTC products are ineffective, so get a prescription or ask your pharmacist for something with codeine. Alternatively, Dark Chocolate 100g or over can be very effective.

What does it mean if your ribs only hurt sometimes?

i don't know but my ribs hurt soooooo bad i hooope i get an answer too well if your ribs hurt when you run then that's what it felt like for my knees...then you have to go to orthopedics...that's where you do excercizes to help out your ribs or knees or anything that hurts. i did it and now the pain in my knees is gone, but when you stop orthropedics then you have to continue on with the excercized...and if it hurts really bad then you might'be pulled something by your ribs. and if it hurts through your ribs down to your hip then you probably definitely pulled a muscle, but anyways i think you should really go to a doctor.
