Subchondral cystic changes

2022-05-02 06:17:52
Right side of my sternum is hurting for almost a year now.Got MRI thorax done couple of months ago and that came normal, then repeated MRI of sternum now again.That also came out normal, then got a CT scan done, it showed subchondral cystic changes on right side of sternum.Also I can touch and feel some of my rib joints coming up while moving my arm.Also bigger bumps on right side joints compared to left joints.Does it mean arthritis ?
