Bones/muscle swelling

Hi, @jadillow - the pain in the rib area, close to the sternum, sounds uncomfortable. I'd like to invite a few members to interact with you about this pain you are having and your question, like @mbcube @dawn_giacabazi @johnbishop @lioness @summertime4.

You are saying that the ribs are physically misaligned, @jadillow? Have you had the chance to ask your doctor about these symptoms? If so, what did he or she say?

Hi @jadillow, I did a quick search and found some information that may be helpful about inflammation and cartilage that sounds a little like the symptoms you are describing. I agree with @lisalucier about discussing it with your doctor if you have not already done that.

Hi @jadillow we emeet again!! As we discussed in multiple other topics, I highly recommend a second opinion and hope you will consider the experience and expertise of Mayo Clinic. It sounds like you are having complex issues that mimic many conditions and I completely understand urgency and fear in not knowing the diagnosis.
