Welcome to Healthcare Magic
You could be having Tietze syndrome which is costochondritis or inflammation of your rib joining the central chest bone. You can take pain killer NSAIDs, and apply Diclofenac gel on that area for pain relief. If it doesn't work you may need steroid injection. Better to consult a Doctor and also get your blood tests for blood count, haemoglobin done.
