Hello,
Welcome to XXXXXXX Thanks for the query.
Chronic anterior chest wall pain.
Inflammation like Costochondritis is very likely.
Pain for four years, which is tender to touch is mostly caused by
1. Musculoskeletal pain with the involvement of the ribs.
2. Slow growing tumors of the chest wall or from the lungs.
The cause of the pain should be found to manage it effectively.
CT and MRI of the thoracic region is advised.
Consult your doctor with the radiological reports.
Hope this answer helps you.
Pleased to answer other queries.
