I have been facing issue with ribs/chest. Several points at side of the ribcage or close to middle hurt. There has been chest pain too at times over last 6-8 months. No cardiac related issue found after undergoing tests. I researched a bit on my own and feel may be I have something like costochondritis or any similar issue related to bones/muscles. Visiting several doctors hasn't helped reach conclusive diagnosis.
