Costochondritis
I was recently diagnosed with costochondritis. One doctor told me it would heal in a week, and I've had it for three. The other doctor told me it would heal in about three months. Do you know the average healing time and what I can do to help this heal?
I also have had costo and the first time i had it, it took near enough 6 months to clear up.
I sympathise with you, its so painful i get pain in my arm chest and face with it also
Hope you feel better soon!

I've have costochondritis also. Sometimes it takes several weeks or longer for a flareup to settle down. I'm not sure what brings on a flareup, but it hurts! My doctor suggested Ibuprofen and it really helps me.
