2. Shiping Clinic of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine in Bijie City
I encountered a female patient in her sixties whose right second and third ribs in the anterior chest area protrude beyond the thoracic cage, accompanied by pain that worsens with deep breathing. A CT scan shows no obvious lesions. Physicians at the local hospital suspect costochondritis and hope you can offer some advice.
A: For patients like this, the likelihood of costochondritis is quite high. Of course, further diagnosis depends on the disease course and local manifestations. If a distinct mass forms locally within a short period and continues to grow, then the possibility of a chondroma should be considered.
