Hello,

It could be costochondritis.

As of now, you can use analgesics/anti-inflammatory combination like aceclofenac/serratiopeptidase for symptomatic relief.

If symptoms persist you can consult a general surgeon and evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
