A member asked:
Tight aching rib cage muscles front and back when walking fast. i think i have costochondritis but this is a new symptom. does this cause those sx?

Chest wall pain: if you do, indeed, have costochondritis, then this could explain your pain. usually this pain is only in the front along your breast bone and edges of ribs. it could also be pleuritis.
