Having suffered costochondritis for 5 years with relief for only 3 months per year, i searched the internet reading stories and trying to find relief i came across an article online somewhere in austrailia where 2 people with costochondritis where found to have very low levels of Vitamin D in their bodies, having been put on Vitamin D for 6 months their condition became less severe, so i set out to buy some vitamin D in multivitamin form and used it along with Bio Freeeze, much to my amazement and 2 years later im in no more pain or discomfort, ive had 2 years pain free now and continuing with my Vitamin D and no more Bio Freeze. I hope this helps other sufferers find relief just like me. please let me know how you get on. Regards.

Thank you for your advice. I have suffered with costochondritis for over 45 years usually it lasts several hours then nothing for a week or so. It is excruciating. I find some foods irritate it. Cheddar Cheese, Honeydew Melon, Crab, some stoggy pastries, and Clotted Cream will always set it off. Other types of cheese are ok.
I’ve recently found that the condition is called costochodritis. It is good to know it has a name.
Previously I called it intercostal muscle spasms. My GP said my vitamin D count was not deficient but was low and I’ve recently had worse rib pain than normal. So maybe that is the key. Vitamin D is needed to prevent flare ups of costochondritis.
I’ll start taking a vitamin D supplement daily from tomorrow morning.
Thank you so much for posting your message.
By the way Bio Freeze is excellent. It got rid of my frozen shoulder when applied 3 times daily.
