I'm experiencing some discomfort and pain when I touch the lower right side of my rib bones, and it's been going on for almost 12 days now. On top of that, I've also been having some nosebleeds. I've been taking TretinIso 20 capsules for about 7 months to deal with acne on my face, as my doctor suggested. I'm really worriedcould these capsules be causing the pain in my ribs or the nosebleeds? What do you think is going on?
