The possible causes include granuloma of the chest wall.

Question 9

swollen lymph nodes through out body for 6 months. my rib cage began hurting and noticed number of lumps there too. should i push for biopsy?

Accepted Answer

Yes: If the problem has been present for 6 months and your are having symptoms, you need to consult an internist or a hematology/oncology specialist to determine if a biopsy is in order.  I presume that you have already seen your PCP without getting a satisfactory answer.

Be seen!: Certainly would need to be seen and thoroughly evaluated to rule out potential cardiac and/or vascular cause.
