Hi User
Thanks for posting your query on healthcare magic
Pain in rib cage is having many reasons. We work up this problem under chest pain evaluation. Chest pain is not always due to heart and it probability of heart in origin depends upon risk factor and character of pain.
For other causes require investigations and complete work up like CBC, Chest X ray, ESR, ECG, Echocardiography, Upper GI endoscopy. You need to visit doctor and he will advise you which test is suitable depending upon his findings.
Hope this helps, wish you best health.
