How To Treat Thoracic Pain?

I have bad thoracic pain sometimes it feels like someone is touching my back or like ants crawling. I also have costachondritis and when I get up from sleeping I feel like my chest is lighter. I have developed sciatic pain every now and then. I also get migraines that I take Maxalt. I take cymbalta as well but there is no pain relief there. I have taken prescription ibuprophen no pain relief with that either. Sometimes I will wake in the night feeling out of it and I see colors floating around. If I move I return to normal. This happens when I lay on my back

Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,

If I were treating doctor I would ask few questions like loss of appetite, fever, weight loss, chronic cough. I would also think some investigation like X-rays and few blood tests. Based on above reports, one can advise appropriately.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
