Help for sleepless parents Encyclopedia Index C costochondritis Search costochondritis The rib cage flexes during respiration to allow more air to enter than would be the case if it were rigid. Costochrondritis is a condition in which there is pain which is localized in the flexible joints (costochondral junctions) of the rib cage, where the ribs attach somewhat flexibly to the breast bone (sternum). For reasons unknown, adolescents going through puberty seem to be prone to developing inflammation of these joints, often after exercise or a blow to the chest. The pain may be sharp and sticking at first, but it usually becomes a dull aching pain. The most common sites of this pain are where the left fourth and fifth ribs attach to the sternum. This is right in the area of the heart, and therefore can create a good bit of anxiety in both the child and the parents. The key to diagnosis is that the pain can be reproduced by pressing on the involved area of the chest wall. This pain is not as sharp and intense as that of a rib fracture (which might be considered if there is a history of a blow to the chest). The treatment of costochondritis is anti-inflammatory medicine such as ibuprofen or naprosyn.

Primer on Aging Choose Font Size Normal Large Extra Large Tietze Syndrome Tietze Syndrome April 15, 2003 (Reviewed: April 3, 2004) Question What is Tietze disease, and does having it increase one's risk for breast cancer? Answer It is always very important that a careful history and examination is performed in order to establish a clear diagnosis of any chest pain. Tietze Syndrome is an inflammatory condition of the breast area, and is one form of costochondritis. Costochondritis is an inflammation of the junctions where the upper ribs join with the cartilage that holds them to the breastbone, or sternum. The condition causes localized chest pain that you can reproduce by pushing on the cartilage in the front of your ribcage. In general, costochondritis is a relatively harmless condition and usually goes away without treatment. Tietze Syndrome, on the other hand, is associated with swellings at the rib-cartilage junction, and lasts longer. (Costochondritis has no noticeable swelling.) Neither condition involves pus or abscess formation. Tietze syndrome usually affects the bone-cartilage junctions of the second and third ribs. The swelling may last for several months. The syndrome can develop as a complication of surgery on your sternum, months to years after the operation. However, the cause is usually unknown.
