Very general question, you need to get examined.
An inflamed rib cage may be a sign of serious pathology which may need immediate medical attention. I recommend calling a Medical Doctor ASAP.
Some common reasons are trauma, like a car accident, straining, like with over working out/lifting improperly and some others that are less common such as respiratory infections.
