Hi,

I cannot say in your particular case, but generally, it is the joints where the ribs attach to the breastbone --costochondritis. ASPIRIN is uniquely capable of helping pain in that condition.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Matt Wachsman, Addiction Medicine Specialist
