A: Because heat rises and extra heat gain exists on the second floor because of the windows and attic, the upper level will require more cooling than the lower level. To maintain a constant temperature in your home, set each thermostat at the same temperature.
Understand What It Is. Slipping rib syndrome, which may also be known as Tietze's syndrome, is considered to be somewhat uncommon. It occurs when the ligaments that hold the ribs in place become weak. This weakness may cause the ribs to slip out of place.
As the ribs slide, along with it the loose ligaments also get stretched producing pain in lower chest and upper abdominal area. Pain is produced as the nerve running along the ribs also gets strained. The common cause of slipping rib syndrome is trauma to the lower rib cage.
