Asked By:Hps2015 in San Diego, CA

I had lipo posterior flanks and inner thigh last week. Now when I breathe deep I have a sharp pain in my right lower rib area and at times in my shoulder. I take short breaths breathing deep hurts.....???? So wasn't sure if my ribs are bruised? Other then that I feel great.
