I’ve been to the ER twice for chest pain and no DR has ever told me this was a possibility. They say they have no idea why I’m having pain here. I have shortness of breath especially after I eat. The anxiety and constant fear of death while I’m sleeping has caused insomnia and anxiety. Glad this came up in my feed. I’ll be bringing this up with my dr ASAP. Thank you.

As a 19 year old I know I shouldn’t be worried about having heart problems but it’s a relief to know that so many people have the same feeling as I do. His chest pain was exactly where I get mine and I feel blessed to find this video. You guys are awesome!

MINE IS GONE: I thought I would never get rid of my costochondritis, then I saw the inventor of the backpod describe how the real problem is with the ribs in your back (and has nothing to do with your chest, where the pain manifests). The ribs in the back become locked in place at the attachment point to the spine. To cure costo, you have to break this up to get the ribs loose and moving fluidly again. My idea was to use a percussion massage gun (I used a Hypervolt, but I’m sure any of them would work the same way) to very aggressively massage the rib cage close to the spine and out towards the shoulder blades, and it worked very quickly. Within a week, I was much better, and back to lifting weights within 2 weeks. I did nothing else besides this. Maybe 5 minutes per side every night. Note that it seems to work better to massage both sides of your back, even if the pain only appears on one side of your chest.

I felt it was my obligation to pass this along to anyone else suffering from this nasty (and never properly treated) condition. Good luck! Ps. Mine does come back if I go too long without massaging periodically but goes away quickly if I start back up.

Hey, i am a 26 years old guy, been having this pain since 3 months and i was afraid and i cannot sleep i thought it was my heart, i visited a doctor and he did a heart test for me and said you are good u just have some stress and anxiety, also i did a blood test and he insisted again that i am fine.
I do hard workout 3 times per week and i dont really feel pain, only when you focus on it and try to push your ribs you feel it.
So here is the solution, first visit a doctor, if he says you are good then you are good, its just anxiety and stress that make you feel so, yes you focus on it and you feel it but the trick is not to alarm it and focus with it, forget it and live your life and it will disappear.
Salute Kings 😊

I was diagnosed with costochondritis in 2019. Know one could tell me how to deal with it and has been one of the worst experiences of my life. This year alone I probably did about 7 MRIs, physical therapy, was in the hospital for days, and haven't worked out in about two years. It was really depressing, fortunately I found this video, and realized I'm not alone. I've been using the back pod for about a week now and my body has done a 180. Thank you Bob and Brad for this video. You two are greatly appreciated and even though it's not completely gone, it's way more manageable now. And I feel I can workout again.

[mcdrai]

Does anyone else get really bad shortness of breath with this? I've had this for a few months and I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy.

[sjb]

So I just left the ER for this hours ago. Ive actually been 4 times this past year due to what I thought were heart issues but my test always come back normal. Ive been so depressed thinking I'm having a heart attack at times and even after leaving today I was skeptical about the diagnosis. I kept thinking "No way inflammation in my ribs could do this, that couldn't possibly cause all the "heart pain" and trouble breathing ive had" that is until I tried these exercises and had momentary relief, also reading others experiences and knowing and I'm not alone and I'm not crazy. Glad I found this channel!

[rammerjammer]

I have this now! It scared me so bad lastnight I was praying, its such a relief to know this! Thank you guys God bless! Acts 2:38

[sbucks]

I was just diagnosed with Costochondritis. Urgent care and 2 days in the hospital with no diagnosis was so frustrating. I’ve been in so much pain that I couldn’t sleep. Went to see a doctor and she diagnosed me in 20 minutes. So excited to come across your video so now I can work on getting back to normal. Thank you!!

[lisasuemurray]

Thank you guys Soo much. I pray this is what my 22 year old son has and has been looking for, I've read Soo many comment I feel confident my son has this, he's been dealing with it 2 yrs, it's scary & he has a spot in the same spot u had so sorry he can't touch his lump. We've had x ray, EKG, CT scans, ultrasound, x rays, blood work. 6 hospital visit & seen a specialist also. Everything comes back normal but he's Not Normal to have pain like this at his age. I worry non stop. Prayers this helps my son 🙏 ty & good luck to all u poor kids this is awful to feel..

[cednaornelus]

Omg you don't know how thankful I am for this video. I Had this issue over a year and half, in and out of the hospital. Doctors told me that am healthy am fine, but just didn't feel healthy at all.Doctors always telling me I just needs to rest, but even when I rest the pain never goes away

[_AR.]

Would anyone agree that the pain feels like a heart attack?? Literally came out nowhere and felt like I was getting stabbed in the back at the same time 😭

[thomasmiller]

Wow. The back pain started in my shoulder blade and has moved to the front and I was so confused but this video was eye opening! THANK YOU

I’ve had mine for 10 years. When It first started, I thought I was dying. So I went to see different doctors, took x rays, did my first MRI, first EKG test for my heart, breathing test for if I had asthma and NOTHING seem to be wrong with me. Pulmonary specialist even looked at me like I was crazy and was like what do YOU THINK is wrong with u? I was so pissed because they all thought I was just making this up. Thousands of dollars wasted and felt helpless. No worse feeling than when someone tells you that it’s all in your head. Anyways several docs later and finally one doctor said I know what you have. It’s Costochondritis and I felt a little hope because at least I was diagnosed with something. Anyways throughout the years I’ve had my good & bad days. MOSTLY good where I’ve learned to live with it and deal with it. I can go weeks even months without pain then all of a sudden I get a Flare up and it can last a couple days or a week or so. I’ve read about it’s supposed to go away on it’s own but it just all depends on the person. By now I’ve realized mine is chronic and it’s just always going to be apart of me which I’ve accepted and fine with. Just have to take better care of yourself and eat better that will help out a lot and exercise. Anyways blessing to all and trust me it’s not the end of the world of you have this yes It can suck sometimes because it’s painful but you will get used to it and be able to maintain having it. Blessing to all

My Dad IS a heart attack survivor. But I feel you just saved him a lot of anxiety and pain. He has gone to many Doctors and the ER. His heart is fine BUT he has been dealing with chest pain for years now. We did hear a diagnosis of arthritis but only drugs given...did not work. It has become a meme in our family to joke about Daddy always rubbing his chest. Not funny when I hear he has been up all night, scared and hurting at 74 years old. I am going to help him get this treated straight away. I will update. Thank you so much. Your videos are more important than you know.

[Sociallyanti-social]

I was diagnosed today and I’m 23. I’m still scared of it being a heart attack, but everything came back normal. This pain really hurts and I’m sooo uncomfortable 😣 i hope it’s nothing serious.. and glad that they didn’t find anything abnormal with my heart

[mooncricket]

I've almost healed myself from. Costocondritis. Done some chiropractic work, and therapeutic workouts so close to getting back to full power!!! 💪

[Raynerd]

I've needed this video! I went to my doctor because I had this pain and he didn't know what was causing it. This makes so much sense!

[lukekwiatkowski]

I've had Costo for about 10 months now. I've been to 3 different doctors and tried all sorts of things - nothing worked. I discovered this video last week and immediately went out to buy a lacrosse ball for $4, then ordered the backpod the next day. After just 5 days of stretching my spine with the ball and backpod, I am already noticing drastic improvement in the pain along my sternum. After not being able to do pushups or dips for almost a year, I finally did a few sets of pushups the other day with no problem and no pain the next day. I can't describe how excited I am that I think I've finally found the solution. Can't wait to see what continued use of the backpod brings over the coming weeks. Thank you for sharing this. Please bring more of this incredibly helpful information to the U.S. medical community!

[tracy]

The first time I ever got costochondritis and you guys talked about the backpod I thought no way is this going to work but decided to try it anyway do to my pain. After the first use my pain was gone! Well months later here I am with it again and as soon as you mentioned about the backpod, I remembered I stored it away so got it out and bam! Took away my pain on first try again!! Money well spent!!
