Costochondritis
from Live Better Longer
On this week’s episode of FOX Rehabilitation’s Live Better Longer podcast we are joined by FOX’s Jonathan Keller, PT, who takes us through his multi-year struggle with costochondritis. After playing tennis, Jonathan felt constant pain in his rib cage and major discomfort while breathing. After attempting to treat himself—after all he is a physical therapist—he exhausted a litany of options to ease his pain: X-ray, CT scans, speaking to past professors, medications, salves, and getting an ultrasound. Finally, Johnathan discovered The Backpod, an invention by Steve August, which he claims has been the only treatment that worked for him in his three years with costochondritis. With this experience, Jonthan then explains how he is now better equipped to help a patient who has a similar diagnosis, and to always dig deeper until an answer is found.
