Costochondritis: In the middle of your chest is the bone that protects your heart and where your ribs attach. The rib attachment is a joint with a lining which like knee joint can get inflamed and when this happens the rib joints hurt when you breath and press on them. Wear good bra so breasts don't pull on your chest and exercise bra when exercising Deep breath/press over joints = pain. Condition is not harmful.
