Thank you for your response. I'm not sure to be honest. I did Google and wondered but thus seems to be more central sternum and my pain us right hand side upper rib.

Hello @DiS
Yep, sounds like Costochondritis… I have, and currently am suffering this. I’ve experienced it to right side rib and currently centre of chest. When it first happened I thought I was having heart problems, went A&E! However, after tests found out not heart but Costochondritis triggers by inflammation (RA) of rib cartilage. Inflammation can cause so many issues apart from joints. Anyway hope this helps, but remember it’s always better to get it checked out by doctor if you have any worries.😊
