Confused Rib Pain - Saw doc tonight

Hi!
New to this forum...just wanted to share and see if anyone else has the same problem. Went the docs tonight with pain below left ribs. Sometimes I feel I am laying on a balloon if I lay on my front and often seems to 'catch' in certain positions. I was worried something under my ribs was swelling up. When I look in the mirror and breathe in, my ribs look very different. I seem to have more ribs on the left and they stick out more. The doc told me I have floating ribs on the left and they are twisted. He thought maybe I had hurt them in the past which I don't think I have. Maybe my job as a primary teacher has made them twist? Lots of bending and lifting - don't know. He said my job will make it worse and maybe I could change jobs!!! Then said we can look into getting ribs removed!! Scared me off really. Anyone else have this? Thanks x
