Costochondritis
I'm facing this problem of costochondritis from 2years. I have consulted two doctors(1 homeopathic and 1 General Physician) in the mean while but it couldn't get better or maybe they couldn't properly diagnose the problem.
Sometimes i have severe chest pain around the ribs and breathing problem too and sometimes it's nothing.
My concern is will this ever get better and which doctor should actually consult for this problem.
