Our full routine to help Costochondritis! 

Same, I’ve had this for 8 months now and it hasn’t gone away at all. Lost my job and I’ve basically been stuck in my house because even just walking hurt. Took several doctors to finally figure out what was wrong with me. I hope it gets better for you!

​@@Omnibushido-that's horrible, I'm so sorry you lost your job. I've been dealing with this for just over a month while going to work. Stretches and OTC pain meds help but working manual labor 5 days a week isn't allowing me to heal. Good luck, I hope you can see a chiropractor or pain specialist and get back to work and living a pain free life

Isnt costo the same?

@@TheNoepje Depends where the strain is. If the first seven ribs are attached to the sternum that is what Costco is in affect when the muscles are hurt. I am still suffering with mine five months on. My whole right rib cage went into a spasm. As the spasm eased off l started to get spasms in my tummy and nerve shooting pain in my arms. I tried the backpod for five weeks and helped greatly but l lacked the flexibibility to continue further. Then l sought a good massage therapist to really dig into the intercostal muscles and the back and l felt five per cent better although painful for a week. Now l am on my first week of physiotherapy exercises,gentles ones specifically prescribed by my local physio. If that does not free the remaining 15% tightness in my rib cage then back to the sports massager. I suffered severe costo so l am of the opinion several different approaches are needed. I may even see a chiropractioner eventually just to get some adjustments given how long my rib cage has been pulled. It is frustrating and worrying but compared to what l had l feel a measure of hope. It is a nasty debilitating illness and l do feel everyone's pain who has had or is suffering with it.

@colinsmith1288 did you ever heal?

@@colinsmith1288did you ever heal?

@@tinosobak5871 Yes. I sought the help of an osteopath twho did manual treatment on me. It took about 4 sessions to cure the problem. The back has to be manually treated as well.

I think its the same thing as diagramd show that area being affected by costochondritis

Great question, here is a great stretch to help add stretching & movement to the upper back: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-YUc8e2shFug.html which could be added in :)

That one says its for pecs, so would that still work for upper back? It's more my spine/ribs@@OsteoandPhysio

Mine does!

@@czechmateyhave you tried voltaren?? It’s meant for arthritis but many who have costo have said it helped them!

@@101marsi I have. It does not help. A very small dose of kratom and the backpod are the two biggest things that actually allow me to get some respite from the constant pain.
