What Causes Tightening Of Muscles Under Right Breast?
Question: hi I have lots of tightening under my right breast like upper stomach. I have had it for years I can not do sit ups crunches because it feels like it will tear. Lately it has gotten bad where I almost crash driving because that spot just tightens into a huge cramp and I cant move because I feel like its going to burst. I don't eat everything makes me nasueas I am so weak but I don't know if these sypmtoms are from this. Anything makes this area hurt. Intercourse moving fast causes huge pain. touching the spot hurts and it feels so weird. It has a feel as if there are 20 huge splinters. also I feel like I am carrying a ball around lol like a swollen organ
thank you
thank you
Brief Answer:
Looks cost-chondritis
Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.
You have explained it so well that I could clinically imagine what the problem would be.
Your history is suggestive of a condition called costo-chondritis- meaning inflammation of the chondral (cartilages) junctions or are of the lower ribs on the right side.
A good clinical examination MRI of the painful area will confirm the diagnosis and guide the correct treatment. If you already have some reports, please upload them so that I am better able to help.
In the meantime also go for routine blood tests, including sugar.
Stress has an important role to play in such problems.
All the best for a correct diagnosis, great treatment and possible sure for a great life.
Please feel free to ask for more information
