I have been diagnosed with Costrochondritis it's inflamation in the chest wall. and the doctors can't do anything about it they said just take Advil for the pain and it will take away the inlfamation. but thats only temparary. Is their anyone else out there with this condition? If so how do you deal with the chest pain?

Have you talked to your doctor about getting cortisone injections or taking pain killers? I'd see about making an appointment with a doctor at a pain clinic. Don't let the doctor tell you this is it, this is all I can do for you. Ask for the name of a doctor or a referal to a pain clinic. There is far too many prescriptions out there for you to be dealing with pain on a daily basis. I don't have this condition, but I do have my own issues going on. I just keep talking to doctors, seeking new treatments and looking up stuff online to find ways to either fix my problem or treat the pain that I deal with daily.
