Why the heart can cause pain in the ribs

I don't know if there is local tenderness when it hurts?

If tenderness.

Basically, it's not from the heart.

Usually intercostal neuritis.

Pain in the heart.

It is usually located in the left precordial area.

and suprasternal. Middle.

The problem is simple, there are two conditions in which heart pain can cause pain in the ribs. One scream, radiating pain: the pain impulse from the internal organs directly stimulates the sensory neurons on the surface of the spinal cord, causing pain in the corresponding surface area.

The lesion viscera and the afferent nerves distributed on the surface of the body enter the same segment of the spinal cord and are connected at the posterior horn) Another is called referred pain: when some internal organs are damaged, the phenomenon of hyperesthesia or pain sensation occurs in a certain area of the body surface.

Left rib neuralgia.

Because there are nerves and blood vessels under the ribs that go in. Generally not a big problem.

It may be caused by overwork at work, or sudden lifting of heavy objects. Because breathing moves with the ribs, it can be particularly painful.

Symptomatic**: anti-inflammatory analgesics (ibuprofen tablets, diclofenac sodium enteric-coated tablets, etc.) It can be used as a medicine such as vitamins.

Heart and rib pain are two different things, the two have nothing to do with each other, you are so young, you don't have to worry about heart problems, you don't specify what kind of pain it is, but it is basically definitely a pain on the surface of the body. If it's okay, you can rest assured. If the heart rate at rest is these, a small amount of allopulsine can be taken orally.

Rib pain can be caused by a variety of reasons, including:

1.Trauma or Hidden Injuries: Rib fractures, contusions, etc., can cause rib pain.

2.Muscle or soft tissue problems: Injuries, inflammation or spasms of the muscles or soft tissues around the ribs can cause pain in the ribs.

3.Diseases: Pain in the ribs can also be a symptom of certain diseases like pleurisy, heart disease, lung disease, digestive problems, etc.

4.Inflammation: Rib pain can also be due to inflammation of the muscles or soft tissues around the ribs, such as intercostal neuritis.

If rib pain lasts for a long time or is severe and affects daily life, you should seek medical attention promptly for diagnosis and**.

Rib pain can be caused by a variety of reasons, but here are some possible causes:

Rib fractures: Rib fractures are one of the most common causes of rib pain and are usually caused by external impacts, falls, car accidents, etc. A fracture can cause severe pain in the broad front, especially when breathing, coughing, or touching the injured area.

Intercostal muscle inflammation: Intercostal muscle inflammation is inflammation of the muscle tissue near the ribs, which can be caused by muscle overuse, strains, muscle sprains, or poor posture. In this case, the pain may worsen with muscle movement or touch.

Costochondritis: Costochondritis is inflammation of the cartilage tissue that connects the ribs to the sternum, which can be caused by trauma, infection, or inflammation around the ribs. Costochondritis can cause chest pain, especially when taking deep breaths, coughing, or moving.

Intercostal neuralgia: Intercostal neuralgia is when the nerves around the ribs are damaged or compressed, causing pain and discomfort. The pain may be sharp, tingling, or dull and may radiate to the back or abdomen.

Internal Organs: The pain may not be directly caused by the ribs themselves, but from the chest or abdominal internal organs, such as lung infections, liver diseases, stomach ulcers, etc. In this case, the pain may be transmitted to the rib area.

These are only one of the possible causes, and the specific diagnosis needs to be determined in conjunction with the medical history, physical examination, and possibly other tests such as x-rays, CT scans, or blood tests. If you have rib pain or persistent discomfort, consult your doctor for evaluation and diagnosis for appropriate** advice. Thank you.

If you have chest and rib pain, you must go to the hospital for a check-up, and in general, there will be heart problems. Be sure to pay attention.

Costochondritis, also known as anterior chest wall syndrome, is a common cause of anterior chest pain, because the pain site is in the anterior chest, it is easy to be confused with angina, patients often mistakenly think that they have coronary heart disease, ** generally related to trauma, in people carrying heavy objects, sharp twisting or due to chest extrusion, etc., so that the thoracic rib joint cartilage causes acute damage, or due to chronic strain or cold and flu caused by viral infection, resulting in edema of the thoracic rib joint surface cartilage, thickened aseptic inflammatory reaction and onset. or costochondral dystrophy, thoracocostal joint inflammation, myofasciitis. Its clinical manifestations are anterior chest pain, mostly soreness and pain, acute or slow onset, sometimes mild and sometimes severe, can be aggravated by turning over and coughing, deep breathing, upper limb activities, sometimes radiating to the upper limbs, and if the tenderness at the 2-5 costal cartilage is not timely and thorough, there is a tendency to reverse.

In clinical practice, it should be distinguished from coronary heart disease, angina, tuberculosis pleurisy and other diseases. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the pain of costochondritis spreads to the chest and flanks, and the upper arm is qi stagnation; Local bulge, tenderness is obvious, and the pain point is fixed and unmovable, which is blood stasis. Qi stagnation and blood stasis, wind and heat invade the meridians, poison and heat are blazing, and qi and blood cannot be contained.

If it doesn't work, it hurts. **: Topical application of traditional Chinese medicine, internal administration of blood circulation and stasis decoction, Zuogui pill.

Intercostal neuralgia is currently considered to be a functional disease that can be relieved when distracted, and some common painkillers such as buprofil can be taken if necessary.

If you have a cold or cough recently, you can go to the internal medicine department to determine whether you need to take a chest X-ray examination. If pleurisy is ruled out, intercostal neuralgia may be present. Daniel Zhang, Department of Neurology, Hangzhou Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
