I'm really worried about some chest pain I've been having. It's there when I breathe deeply, move my neck, or even press on the area, and it all seems to start from the straight back. This has been going on for the past 2 years and I just don't know what to do about it. What could be causing this kind of pain?

Is there any other way to treat costochondritis besides taking anti-inflammatory tablets? I've been dealing with this for almost two months, and it's really affecting me mentally with all the anxiety and fear it brings.

Consider exploring alternative treatments for costochondritis, such as physical therapy, heat or cold compresses, deep breathing exercises, yoga, or stress-reducing techniques like meditation or cognitive-behavioral therapy, under the guidance of a healthcare professional, to help manage symptoms and alleviate psychological distress.
