  • Costochondritis is a condition in which this cartilage that attaches your ribs to your breastbone becomes irritated and inflamed. Costochondritis can be very painful and sometimes debilitating. I have had a few experiences where I went to the hospital because I was in so much pain from this condition. I had issues with costo for many years they figured out what was causing my symptoms and pain. Once I found the BackPod, my life changed. I am in no way promoting the BackPod but I do believe it works if it is costochondritis you are dealing with. As always, please consult a doctor before trying anything new.

    My name is Samantha Wayne and I have been creating advocacy videos on UA-cam since 2009. This channel was formerly known as Live Hope Lupus and was created in order to start a community for those living with chronic illnesses. In September 2019, I transitioned to a plant-based diet and I have found my body is responding well to it. Along with my lifestyle change, I am learning to alter my focus more on the positive. My current content will focus on my healing journey, what food I am eating, and everyday life. I will still be posting an occasional update about my health. I hope you all are ready to join me on this crazy journey of healing. We are all learning how to navigate this life together. If you have subscribed, thank you!

      buy an ice pack and a hot water bottle. ice the area for 20mins then apply heat for 20mins. repeat over and over. basically the only thing thats helped me and ive suffered from this chronically since i was around 20 after a car accident and im now 35. to the point ive had to take days off work due to it. very scary yes but once u can accept its not going to kill you its far easier to manage. sharp stabbing pain, sometimes for me happens after large meals and taking deep breaths ocassionally after yawning if its a big yawn also. Happens out of the blue in the strangest of situations at times. ibuprofen tablets or ibuprofen cream for the area is always handy to have in the house or for on the go.

    I just got diagnosed with Costo along with Pleurisy. I vaped for 3-4 years and stopped about 3 weeks ago. About 3 days after quitting vaping, the left side of my chest started hurting subtlety and then got worse over the course of a week. Finally, I went to the ER and they did an EKG along with blood work and a chest XRAY. To rule out any serious heart/lung related issues. Doc diagnosed it as Pleurisy and Costo....yaaaay! Its very painful. My pain is more under my armpit and spreads to my back. Ive had it for about 2 weeks now. We are on steroids and Nsaids but i dont think those are working. Im also a Plumber who does alot of physical labor and stuff. Age 34. It can be debilitating. But, we are alive my friends. And we will get through this. It could be worse.

Pain was a jolt at first and felt like a rubber band stretching on left side and under arm but now it’s in the centre. Off to docs tomorrow to see what they think. Are you finding it’s constant or does it ease off from time to time? I seem to get very sore in the evening unfortunately

      Me too! Honestly I’ve been dealing with it since November of 2022. I got it after accidentally popping my sternum while driving home and also hunching over that caused my ribs to flare up. Before this happened, my upper back was really stiff and it felt like I could not sit up straight anymore. I did not know what was going on and I just remembered popping my sternum while driving home and it was the most horrifying thing that happened because right after this happened, I suddenly started feeling pain all over my chest and I thought I was having a heart attack. I went to the hospital and it turned out I was diagnosed with costo. It went away for a few weeks but then suddenly creeped up again and was in pain and it was so hard for me to sleep because I was so anxious and scared about this. 3 weeks ago, My ribs felt like they were giving up on me because they felt so stiff, tender, and my upper back was just not having it. Then I did some research and found this back pod and honestly it really helped during the first week of trying it. I felt instant relief and felt my chest opening up and my ribs just loosening up a little bit. Now, it came back again after my ribs started to flare up from the muscle strain in between and it hurts. I’m so glad I found people like you who is dealing with this at the moment, because I just felt so alone. Don’t give up, we got this!

      Hi
      I dunno if you wanna try this but I had pretty much the same thing and I went to get it checked out because I freaked out a bit (chest pain is scary) but was only prescribed anti inflammatories as my heart was fine
      But since I used them up I started using powdered turmeric/cinnamon or both in boiling water and used that as my anti inflammatory
      And it does help
      Anyway just an idea
      Try not to worry ❤️

They started telling me that it is all because of the stress in my life. then i started searching and that is how i found costo...finally :) i went to see a physical therapist and she sad costo after 2 minutes checking my chest, ribs...the hardest part for me is the problem with breathing...sometimes i have to yawn in order to get enougn . it feels like something is stoping my breathing...very bad experience...just trying to order the back pod.

    I have been struggling with it for 3 and a half years non stop. It was caused as a result from gymnastics and contortion. I currently use opioids to manage the pain (it’s the only medication I have found to work with pain relief) I use heat to ease the pain but find that cold makes it worse. I definitely think seeing a chiropractor and Phisio is very beneficial and doing exercise for costo can help but be careful not to overdo it as it can make it worse.

    I had chest pain come out of nowhere. I did quite a bit of research and found that in my case it was deferred pain from my gallbladder. You can feel this pain across your chest, back, shoulder and up into your neck. I felt it mostly in my breastbone and around my heart. As soon as I started supporting my gallbladder, no more chest pain, back pain, shoulder pain... Hope this helps someone in pain!

      @@suemiller9506 I recommend watching some Dr. Berg here on UA-cam, he has quite a few suggestions. For immediate pain: castor oil packs with a hot pad, hot showers and lightly massaging. I played around with taking tudca and/or bile salts and making sure I'm hydrated. Also, gallbladder stagnation usually means supporting the liver, so a lot of the treatments or supplements go hand in hand. However in order to heal (cause I still don't know the root cause of why my gallbladder suddenly just started acting up) I've majorly adjusted my diet and am keeping a food diary: absolutely no processed food, nothing from a can or bag. Literally fruit, veggies, some nuts, rice and some occasional meat/fish. No sweets, no heavy meat meals, no dairy, no eggs, no baked goods and no teas, herbs or extra supplements... Stepping way back so my body can rest and heal. Lots of fasting. I'm also gluten free. It's boring AF to eat salad and apples every day but it's helping. Three big things I've heard can make the gallbladder sluggish: too much insulin, cortisol and estrogen. So reducing stress and figuring out what's going on in your body unique to you.

    How long do you lie on the backpod per session? Im doing a minute in first position, starting on the middle/upper spine, then move to the left, do upper and lower, then upper and lower on the right side too. So 5 positions, roughly 5 mins total. I’m on day 2 and it seems to be helping, but my back is sore from it… I don’t wanna overdo it, but also want it to be enough. So grateful for these videos, thank you and all the best to you :)

    • @Clodhopping
      @Clodhopping Рік тому +1

      30-60 seconds in each spot. Remember if feels too hard on your bony spine, just put a towel over it to add some padding.
      Also use enough pillows/cushions under your head to reduce the loading until you get used to it.
      Do the exercises recommended by Steve August in the PDF. You need these to keep the spine mobile otherwise it'll seize up again.
      And get a proper sports massage targeted on the tight areas
      For me using the BackPod horizontally across my spine really helps - and holding that position for 1-3 minutes.
      Good luck!

Finally, a chiropractor officially diagnosed me with costo late last year - had a ton of adjustments done and those did not do much for my pain unfortunately - i do stretching every morning and yoga - and that helps - but i continue to have chronic pain with this condition - who knows how long i will have it - would not wish the pain on my worst enemy.

    My bulge is in the right side of my upper ribs. (The 3rd rib and 5th rib). Protruding, like Tietze syndrome. It has been extremely hard to breathe, and burning! Burning in my chest, back, and all up/down my left arm into that side of my neck. And the burning goes up and down my spine sometimes too. Like waves.
    I also get a radiating pulsing/throbbing sensation.
    I’ve had peripheral nerve tests ect and nothing has shown.

      Once I started using the BackPod, it took a week. I was amazed and whenever I feel it coming on I use the BackPod again. Yeah, I have found that everyone has a different experience. It could be the posture aggravating it as well. At the time, I had to stop working out for awhile to make sure it was gone for good.

    Hi. I bought the backpod about a month ago. THANKS for your videos.
    I’m wondering if I even have costochondritis though because my story sounds different than anybody else’s
    so I have costochondritis they say. My pain originated at my lovely dowagers hump back in October. By December anytime I laid down on my bed for longer than a half of an hour that dowagers hump area and my traps would start burning and tingling until I sat back up! The tingling has since stopped I’m not sure what made it stop but it’s no longer there. Occasionally my upper traps will feel tingly though.
    The pain/stiffness then went on to my ribs the following weeks and my chest.
    My scalene‘s are also jacked up and super tight especially on the right side not to mention my upper traps feel like they are constantly engaged!
    My physical therapist has helped bring down my intense tight traps but my sternum still feels like it locks up and when I get down on the back part of it releases the locked feeling in my sternum. Poor if I push on my sternum I feel a pop in my upper back and then the tension is released.
    Contemplating going to the chiropractor.

      Much better. I go to physical therapy and a chiropractor. I drink tons of water and eat less inflammatory foods. A couple of chiropractors argue that it’s probably not costochondritis that I’m dealing with but then others say that it probably is so I’m very confused. I still use the back pod and a regular basis. I can tell you I don’t have the squeezing pain anymore either and for that I am very thankful. I would suggest that anybody who is dealing with this get a back pod and also talk to multiple chiropractors and physical therapists to get their opinions.

I perhaps started back to activities too quickly after covid-- not sure. But I was wondering why no one else described this as a symptom after covid. I never suffereed from the condition before covid, so I'm positive that is what precipitated it-- whether the coughing or the virus itself, I do not know.

    I just wanted to say that I’ve been having these issues too and I’m only 15 however my relationship with Jesus has made it better. Jesus a man who God the Father sent, died on the cross for all of our sins. He sacrificed His life for us so that we wouldn’t have to go to hell and sacrifice it ourselves. We all deserve hell bc a man and women, the first humans disobeyed God and God cursed the earth. No one is righteous not even one so we all deserve hell. But Jesus changed that. Repent turn to God and seek Him.
    Prayer: Father God, I’m sorry for my sins. I’m a sinner and I need you. I confess with my mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe it in my heart that You raised Him from the dead. Come into my life Lord and save me. Reveal to me Your love. Make me anew and change my life God. Thank You. In Jesus’ Name Amen
