Accepted Answer

The symptoms you are describing could be related to costochondritis, which is inflammation of the cartilage that connects a rib to the sternum. To help alleviate the pain, you can try taking over-the-counter nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as Ibuprofen. The recommended dosage is usually 400mg to 800mg every 6 hours as needed for pain. In addition, applying a topical NSAID cream such as Diclofenac gel to the painful area may also provide relief. You can apply a thin layer of the gel to the sternum area up to 4 times a day. It is important to consult with a doctor to confirm the diagnosis and rule out any other potential causes of your symptoms. You may need to undergo tests such as an X-ray or MRI to further evaluate the condition of your sternum and ribs.
