Hi There. I’m Experiencing Pain In Several Places. I Don’t

Pain can be easily treated.
Detailed Answer:
Thank you for posting your query.
I am Dr Sudhir Kumar, Neurologist, and I would try my best to help you.
I have noted your clinical details. Based on this, pain can be due to the following causes:
1. Pinched nerve in the neck- This can lead to pain in neck, chest and arm
2. Costochondritis- as suggested by you. It can cause pain over ribs and chest.
3. Fibromyalgia is unlikely at this stage, as we need to exclude other causes of pain by doing appropriate tests such as MRI of spine, before diagnosing fibromyalgia.
As of now, you would benefit from medications such as pregabalin, which would help in pinched nerve as well as fibromyalgia (if you have that). Ibuprofen or diclofenac tablets may be taken for costochondritis.
I hope my answer helps. Please get back if you have any follow up queries or if you require any additional information.
Wishing you good health,
Dr Sudhir Kumar MD (Internal Medicine), DM (Neurology) XXXXXXX Consultant Neurologist
