my daughter had a baby 5 1/2 months ago and has had severe chest pain since shortly after delivery. She was diagnosed with costrochondritis. Can this be caused from delivery? She is very tiny and I am afraid something may have happened after delivery
Hi thanks for contacting Chat Doctor.... Costochon Chat Doctor. ... The cause might be trauma, viral infection etc.... For that follow below advises......1. Ibuprofen 200 mg BD for five days....2. Take rest 3. Strenous work avoided 4.proper sleep posture 5. Hot compress applied to chest 6. If needed physiotherapy help can be taken 7. If needed supportive bandage can be used.....
