I think I have costochondritis as I stretched down earlier today to dry my legs and twisted strangely ehich caused a sudden sharp pain to occur in my sternum. The pain has not faded and it hurts when pressed in that spot. Its painful to twist or bwnd forward/down, also when just changing position. I am jusr a bit concerned about my right arm feeling tingly and my hand feels numb. Can you advise?
HiThis pain is due to radiation,costochondritis.You can apply local pain relieving gel with relaxation deep breathing exercises.Painkillers with muscle relaxant will help.If pain is not reduced kindly consult your treating doctor for chest X-ray and ECG.All the best.
