What causes chronic inflammation? puffy red eyes, feet, ankles, knees-recent chest wall pain- improves w/ibuprofen? not obese 5' 3" 120lbs

Too many things: It sounds like you a lot of edema. There are too many causes to figure out in one paragraph. You should see a doctor. They will need to take a detailed history, perform physical exam, and probably order some tests. Please get it looked into.
