Chest Pain

As a chiropractor in Glenview for close to 20 years now, I do see my fair share of patients complaining of sharp pains in the sternum that often times is caused by inflammation of the muscles between the ribs (making it difficult to take deep breaths/cough/sneeze), a broken rib (pretty rare) or a misalignment of the vertebra(e) and a rib. This last scenario can be easily corrected with a chiropractic adjustment.
