disc prolapse

The intercostal muscles are a group of muscles between the ribs known as the intercostal muscles. They consist of the internal and external intercostal muscles. These muscles are important for breathing as they help expand and contract the rib cage. During inhalation, they raise the ribs, expanding the rib cage, while during exhalation they relax and lower the rib cage.
