What are some ways to treat costochondritis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
NSAIDS: The most common way is to start with nsaids (if you are not allergic and can tolerate). Another way for more "resistant" cases is injections (steroids most commonly). This is very general...Like anything in medicine, the treatment depends on the cause of the condition.
