Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Possibility of musculoskeletal pain is more likely.
But better to get done ecg and 2d echo to rule out heart diseases.
If these tests are normal then no need to worry for heart diseases.
Avoid movements causing pain. Avoid heavyweight lifting and strenuous exercise. Avoid sudden jerky movements.
Apply warm water pad on affected areas.
Wear rib belt to prevent mobilization of ribs.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
