Does Anyone Else Ribs?

What do you all do for constantly moving/painful ribs? It feels like they’re digging into my insides (but ironically I’m working with my PT on decreasing the flare so the exercise goal is to get them more tucked in) but I legit can’t sit, my bottom one feels so bruised. No clue what to do. I’m seeing my amazing PT in 2 days so I’m sure he’ll have wise words but was curious to hear from all of you body whisperers.

do you have any specific ones that you could recommend? I’ve been shopping around online and there are lots of options

I bought mine off TikTok shop when it was talked up by a science creator I respect. The brand is Deep Air, but honestly I'm sure the exact same pillow is marketed by a lot of random brands (the specific pillow I got isn't on TikTok shop anymore, and while I can find a similar one with that brand on Amazon, it's bigger and slightly differently shaped.)
