I have some cramp-like pain in lower right sternum area, exacerbated by deep breaths and certain torso movements. I did not engage in physical excursion today, but do have a history of chostocondritis (though, typically that s a sharp shooting pain and this is a cramp-like pain). No other symptoms.
Hello, Cannot say in your particular case, but generally, costochondritis is mainly diagnosed because you can localize the source of the pain very easily. If it is irritation of the joints to the ribs, then that's what it is by definition. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
