FAQ

Costochondritis — Common Questions

Costochondritis is inflammation of the cartilage that connects the ribs to the breastbone. It causes front-of-chest pain that is tender to press and often worse with deep breaths, coughing, twisting or lifting.

Costochondritis itself is not dangerous and does not damage the heart or lungs. But chest pain can have serious causes, so it must be checked by a doctor first — especially if it comes with breathlessness, sweating, or pain spreading to the arm, jaw or back.

Many cases settle within a few weeks; some take a few months, especially if the trigger continues. Physiotherapy and activity changes can help it settle and stop it from flaring up again.

Common triggers are a bout of heavy coughing, a new or intense upper-body workout, heavy lifting, carrying a child on one side, and long periods of slumped posture.

Usually yes, with changes. Walking and lower-body exercise are generally fine; heavy pushing, pulling and chest work are best reduced until it settles. We guide you on what to keep, modify and avoid for now.

Your first visit is a ₹500 assessment at our C-Scheme clinic; treatment sessions start at ₹600. How many sessions you need depends on what we find — we give you a clear plan and estimate at the first visit, so there are no surprises.
