CHEST & RIB PAIN. BEST Exercises, Stretches & Advice for COSTOCHONDRITIS

#chestpain #ribpain #chest

Costochondritis, an inflammation of costochondral junctions of ribs or chondrosternal joints of the anterior chest wall, is a common condition seen in patients presenting to the physician's office and emergency department. Palpation of the affected chondrosternal joints of the chest wall elicits tenderness. Although costochondritis is usually self-limited and benign, it should be distinguished from other, more serious causes of chest pain.

Thank you. Everyone else talks about everything but how to work it out.

I subscribed. Very knowledgeable. I hurt my rib twice in the same area in a month. Common, minor road accident off a bike. I’m hoping with isometrics will heal. Thank you. 🙏 You’re a scholar and a gentleman. I’m overseas without a hospital in the area.

Thanks for posting this information! I have had this ugly condition for over 2 years now (although never officially diagnosed) with all the symptoms of costo, I am definitely dealing with this - for healing I do costo specific stretches every morning along with yoga too - I've brought light weight training back into my routine again as well - and am starting to regularly drum again - a chiropractor I saw a few months back claims the wear and tear of drumming for 35 years developed this condition for me - and I think she is right - flare ups are the worst - the chest and back pain (I primarily get mid to lower back but it can strike anywhere and literally feels like hot lava going down your back in a bad flare up - chest feels like I'm being stabbed in my ribs repeatedly - with emphasis on the upper left ribs - how i deal with those is take advil when needed, kalaya cream - works really good - and consume a diet high in anti-inflammatory foods - still hurts every day but at least I have got some handle on it now.

Thanks for the video. I am 50 years old and got this problem from doing months of capoeira---a Brazilian martial arts combining lots of gymnastic style moves. I started having trouble breathing while practicing and later, muscle pain. I went to the doctor and told them my chest and rib muscles hurt and cause me to wheeze. They had no idea what the problem was.
...I decided to do serious online research of my symptoms, and costochondritis and chest wall injury kept coming up in my searches. It described exactly my injury. Strained/bruised rib and chest muscles and breathing problems because of that. I stopped all capoeira and upper body activity for 2 months. It got a little better. Then I began light exercises and very light upper body workouts. My ribs still get stiff after walking a while and after light exercising, but it's much better. There is still pressure, but the wheezing is gone. It is going to be a slow process, but I hope to get back to capoeira in a few more months when the deep bruised/strained muscles heal a bit more.

What sort of heal time could I expect? What city are you in? And thanks for being straight forward. Other videos on this are just way too bloated with unnecessary talk.

[jasentharris]

Very informative. Thanks for sharing this information

[cindyflores]

I just got through coughing so much then I started getting those side cramps. Thank you for all the tips.

[tradingwithwill]

Recently I did weights and felt great as well as tennis but then the ache comes on afterward. One time I woke up with it at 2am and other times it’s a few hours after I wake up. So it’s not painful when doing the activity and the pressing on the ribs finds sore spots but that isn’t the same as the ache/pressure that I feel at times. However the fiat time this was triggered was during tennis all the upper body rotation and I would feel issues as I was playing. Trying to figure out which exercises may have done it like the push-ups our overhead press etc sonething chest related.

I made a mistake of using just one dumbell with a little more weight on while standing and i notice i was kind of not standing straight and pushing it upp and overdid it for a week, i did not stretch beforehand. The pain is beginning to go down now, i could not lay down on my bed had to sleep on the couch. I almost had a panic attack last night but then i told myself "i have been infront of computer desk for 20 years without working out..stop having fear..rest your body...this is what happens when you dont stretch and overdo something wrong way"

[andersj.p.eskilsson]

Thanks for the informative video (how long should the sets be? Maybe I missed that ) I get pain from the inner right side on the close to the 5th rib. Mine comes from sitting down/laying in a soft couch and when I play guitar. Can be very irritating.

[anaihcnerf]

Maybe due to my strenuous coughing for a month (Sept.)causes pain or trauma to may ribcage. 2 weeks pain in my right then after a week of recovery my left started to experience same in my right but I think it's more hurting this time. Symptoms are stabbing pain, difficulty in lying down even in getting up, hurts when I cough especially sneezing🤧😡 ..it's been 2 weeks again but still no sign of progress wherein pain alleviates. Now im trying to take ibuprofen and hot compress. It's no longer healing on its own. Need to see a doctor for better diagnosis.

[misurimwijewardhana]

My right chest hurts. I don't know if it's muscles or ribs, but it happens at least twice a week, especially when I take deep breaths, lie down, or make upper body movements. It feels like burning, stabbing, or I don't know how to say it, but it's a really sharp pain. It's been two years. At first, it was once a month, but now it's more often. Doctors do not have an exact answer. I hope this goes away as soon as possible.😢

I had my lung removed a rib removed proton radiation done to the complete space my left lung was .
I also had cryo ablation don’t the my upper left chest and around my spleen area to kill tumors .
So I have some pretty bad scar tissue internally .

[xp_silent]

0:48 my pain is almost goes away when i apply pressure to that area the pain happens when i try to stand and raise my chest pain also goes to the back i think it a back problem

[AndreaWondergem]

Does the condition come with weakness and flu like symptoms? I'm on day 4, and I feel weak. The burning and pressure have stopped.

[dollysan]

Day one of doing these exercises, hope it gets better day by day

[suhasinimadhuryachennubhot]

Do you suggest continuing to lift weights?
