The symptom of chest pain as soon as the chest is pressed may be caused by overexertion, such as strain of the chest muscles caused when the patient performs strenuous sports, which may cause symptoms of chest pain, and the pain may be aggravated when pressed. Patients who do not warm up sufficiently before strenuous activities may cause excessive stretching of the intercostal muscles, resulting in spasm of the intercostal muscles, which may lead to painful symptoms of the intercostal muscles. Chest pain on compression may also be due to costochondritis, which occurs in young female patients with parasternal costochondral pain that may increase with strenuous activity, coughing or deep breathing, and is prone to recurrent episodes. Pain in the chest when pressing may also be due to intercostal neuritis, herpes zoster and other diseases. It is important to take care of rest and avoid straining. You can take oral Nimesulide and other drugs for symptomatic treatment to relieve the pain, and further examination is needed to clarify the cause if there are other symptoms.
