Guest guest Posted April 8, 2004 Report Share Posted April 8, 2004 Thanks Mike. I agree. But, I swear the xray looked unusual. Those nice smooth lines of the bones wern't nice and smooth in the areas that are hurting. It looked like a fracture to me. but, I'm not an expert. And, I've been told that costrochondritis is around the sternum, and doesn't show on an xray. It hurts when she moves wrong. She's ok if she's sitting still, or just keeping straight. Only hurts bad when she moves how she shouldn't. Who knows? I'm just having her treat it like it's broken, like you said. Either way, I'm sure it's gonna take a week or 2 till it feels better. Oh, and she did it sneezing - not coughing. She had pretty much finished coughing the day she did it. I'll just have her take it easy, and if anything else worries us, we'll just go back to the dr. There is a swelling around the area, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
