Treatment of non-specific costochondritis

The treatment of non-specific costal chondritis mainly includes the following categories: First, conservative treatment: the clinical treatment is usually carried out with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs, such as celecoxib capsules, loxoprofen sodium, Acomplia, and Protocon. The above drugs can rapidly eliminate inflammation and relieve the clinical symptoms of pain, and are usually taken for 2-4 weeks with better effect. Some patients can also be treated with closed injection to relieve severe short-term pain. Second, surgical treatment: If conservative treatment is ineffective and the local swelling of rib cartilage is obvious and the symptoms are frequent, surgical treatment should be used promptly. Surgical removal of the diseased rib cartilage can completely remove the lesion and relieve local pain and other clinical symptoms. Early diagnosis and treatment can lead to a reduction in inflammation of the rib cartilage, while delayed treatment may worsen painful symptoms and affect breathing.
