Acupuncture for rib & chest-wall pain
Sharp, band-like pain along the ribs that flares with a breath. Once serious causes are ruled out, acupuncture calms the irritated nerve.
Intercostal neuralgia is nerve pain that follows the path of the nerves running between the ribs. It brings sharp, sometimes band-like pain around the chest or ribcage that can flare with breathing, twisting or pressure.
Once a doctor has ruled out cardiac and other serious causes, acupuncture is a gentle, effective option to calm the irritated nerve and the tight muscles around the ribs.
