To me, the issue is more what you pain level and function are, rather than where your rib is. Has moving the rib 50% reduced your pain and other symptoms? If yes, I would personally avoid surgery if you are at a place that is tolerable.

I had surgery that did not provide relief so that makes me more cautious when it comes to considering surgery.

Take care,
