Are Chest Pain, Body Pain And Nausea Related To Costochondritis?

23 female. Went to ER for heat pains about a month ago. EKG was fine, chest xrays good. Diagnosed with costochondritis. But still getting pain in chest, and radiating into arms and back (mainly left side). Now my whole body aches, weak, light headed, nausea. Wondering if this has to do with the costo? Just don't feel right. Worried.

Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
No need to worry worry for major heart and lung related diseases because all your reports are normal.
Possibility of costochondritis and anxiety related symptoms is more in your case.
So avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
Take painkiller and muscle relaxant drugs.
Avoid movements causing pain. Avoid heavyweight lifting and strenuous exercise.
Avoid bad postures in sleep. Apply warm water pad on affected areas.
Don't worry, you will be alright.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
