Rib osteochondritis is a sterile inflammatory disease, mainly caused by repeated pulling and rubbing of the periosteum of the rib cage, resulting in a sterile inflammatory edema of the rib cage, leading to significant pain and pressure in the rib cage, and a significant increase in pain when breathing deeply or coughing. After the onset of periostitis of the ribs, it is important to keep warm, avoid getting cold, and avoid repeated deep breathing and coughing. If the patient has a habitual cough, apply cough suppressants to relieve chest pain and apply heat to the chest during the painful period to promote blood circulation in the chest wall and the absorption and decompression of inflammatory edema. Then you can apply non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, such as nimesulide, clonoxicam, diclofenac sodium and other drugs, which can be taken orally to relieve the pain of osteochondritis of the ribs.
