Tender ribs

[Albedo82]

Before I thought I had constipation, which seems to have possibly gone away. Then I was having stomach issues which seems to have possibly calmed down.  My doctor did a blood test to check me for H. Pylori which is a bacteria that can cause Ulcers and gastritis, and the results came back negative. But now the bottom sides of my ribs in certain locations seem to be tender to touch.
It doesn't hurt to breath, cough or move around, it just feels tender when I press down on it with my fingers.
I don't know why, I'm still having some stomach issues but they weren't as bad as before.

Anxiety causes a lot of muscle pains, to me it sounds like it could be pain in the chest wall. Do you ever get any chest pains? This is one of my more common anxiety symptoms -- my chest will hurt at night, and my ribs hurt like crazy the next morning. I would chalk all this up to muscle pains/contractions.

My chest doesn't or didn't hurt, and the tender parts are pretty symmetrical tender up towards my sternum, and down at my sides. I noticed it just starting yesterday and doesn't seem to be getting worse or is prohibiting me from doing anything. I just hope it's not another symptom. I hope my intestines aren't getting inflammed and pressing up against my rib cage, although my intestines don't feel sore. I'm hoping it's just anxiety, but I don't even know why I'm having anxiety problems.
