Doctor's answer:
This condition is often associated with viral infections, toxic influences, mechanical injuries, and foreign body control, among other factors. The pain is typically sharp or burning and follows the pattern of the intercostal nerves. For your situation, it can be treated with traditional Chinese medicine, combined with acupuncture therapy, physical therapy, or closed-loop therapy. Spinal diseases in the thoracic region should be treated promptly to prevent the development of intercostal neuralgia. Office workers should pay attention to their posture and avoid overexertion.
