This may mean a person feels pain either in or around their sternum. Depending on the location of collarbone trauma, other symptoms may include:
severe pain when raising the armbruising or swelling in the upper chest areaabnormal positioning or sagging of the shoulder clicking and grinding in the shoulder joint
A great many muscles connect to the sternum and ribs. Injuries or trauma can result in bruising these muscles, which may cause them to ache. Strenuous or repetitive movements can also cause strains in these muscles. Learn more about muscle strains here,
- Pleura are sheets of tissue between the lungs and ribcage.
- Inflammation to these tissues is pleurisy.
- Pleurisy can cause a sharp, stabbing pain at the site of irritation, which may worsen if a person breathes deeply, coughs, or wheezes.
- If inflammation occurs toward the upper middle chest, pleurisy may cause substernal pain.

Inflammation of the primary airways may cause substernal pain. Learn more about bronchitis here, Pneumonia is a common lung infection that causes air sacs in the lungs to inflame and fill with fluid. The medical term for these air sacs is alveoli. Pneumonia can cause sharp chest pains, which a person may feel behind their sternum. Other symptoms of pneumonia include.

People experiencing chest pain may worry they are having a heart attack. However, sternum pain differs from heart attack pain. People who are having a heart attack experience specific signs before the heart attack itself, whereas most sternum pain starts suddenly. A heart attack often occurs with the following symptoms :
pressure, squeezing, or fullness in the center of the chest sweating nausea shortness of breath lightheadedness
However, anyone who thinks they are having a heart attack should seek immediate medical attention. While sternum pain is not usually serious, there are some causes of sternum pain that require immediate medical attention. A person should seek emergency medical attention if the pain:
started as a result of direct traumais accompanied by heart attack symptomsis persistent and does not improve over timeis accompanied by intense vomiting or vomiting blood
A person should also speak to a doctor if the pain in their sternum gets worse or does not improve over time. Physical trauma, costochondritis, and muscle strains are common causes of sternum pain. Conditions such as pneumonia, pleurisy and GERD can also cause pain in nearby tissue that people may mistake for sternum pain. Read the article in Spanish.
What causes pain in sternum and ribs?
What is costochondritis? – Costochondritis is a harmless swelling (inflammation) of cartilage in your chest. The cartilage connects your ribs to your breastbone (sternum), creating the costochondral joint. Costochondritis feels like a sharp or aching pain.
What is the pain in the middle of the breastbone?
Costochondritis is inflammation where your ribs join the bone in the middle of your chest (breastbone). It can cause sharp chest pain, especially when moving or breathing. It usually gets better on its own over time.

What is musculoskeletal chest pain ICD-9?
Coding for Chest Pain April 26, 2010 Coding for Chest Pain For The Record Vol.22 No.8 P.27 A common reason for seeking emergency treatment is chest pain. Although the underlying cause may not be cardiac related, the patient should be seen immediately by a physician if the pain continues and radiates to the neck, shoulder, arm, or jaw.
- If the pain is due to a myocardial infarction, treatment within the first six hours may help prevent further damage to the heart muscle.
- Pain in any part of the chest may include problems with the heart, lungs, esophagus, muscle, bone, or skin.
- Chest discomfort or pain that begins or gets worse with exercise, stress, or eating a large meal and goes away with rest may be a warning sign of heart disease.
Other symptoms accompanying cardiac-related chest pain may include chest pressure, fullness, or tightness; a crushing or squeezing pain that radiates to the back, neck, jaw, shoulders, or arms, more commonly affecting the left arm and shoulder; the feeling of a heavy weight on the chest; pain that lasts more than a few minutes then goes away and returns or varies in intensity; shortness of breath; sweating; dizziness or lightheadedness; nausea or vomiting; sudden weakness; and a fast, slow, or irregular heartbeat.
Other symptoms accompanying noncardiac-related chest pain may include a burning sensation behind the sternum, a sour taste in the mouth, difficulty swallowing, fluctuations in pain intensity when there is a change in body position, pain intensification with deep breathing and coughing, and tenderness when pressure is applied to the chest.
Chest pain is classified to ICD-9-CM code 786.50, which may change depending on the exact location, with midsternal or substernal chest pain coded to 786.51 and chest wall or anterior chest wall pain coded to 786.52. If the pain is described as atypical, musculoskeletal, or noncardiac with no further information on the underlying cause, then code 786.59 is assigned.
The documentation of chest discomfort, pressure, and tightness is also classified to this code. These chest pain codes are symptom codes. According to coding guidelines, assign a code for the related definitive diagnosis if one has been established by the physician instead of a code for the symptom. Some common cardiac-related causes of chest pain may include the following: • Acute myocardial infarction (category 410) occurs when the coronary arteries are blocked causing damage to the heart muscle.
• Angina occurs when there is plaque buildup in the coronary arteries that temporarily restricts blood flow, usually during exertion. Stable angina (413.9) occurs repetitively and predictably with exercise and goes away with rest. Unstable angina (411.1) is unusual or unpredictable pain not completely relieved with rest or pain that occurs at rest.
• Aortic dissection (441.00 to 441.03) is a tear in the inner lining of the aorta and may cause massive internal bleeding. • Coronary spasm (413.9), which causes Prinzmetal angina (413.1), results in a temporary stop in blood flow. • Pericarditis (category 420 or 423) is inflammation of the sac surrounding the heart.
• Mitral valve prolapsed (424.0) is a heart valve abnormality. • Myocarditis (category 422 or 429.0) is an inflammation of the heart. • Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (425.1 or 425.4).
- The following are some common digestive causes of chest pain:
- • heartburn (787.1);
- • gastroesophageal reflux (530.81);
• esophagitis (530.10 to 530.19);
- • esophageal spasm (530.5);
- • hiatal hernia (553.3);
- • achalasia (530.0);
- • perforated viscus (799.89);
- • cholecystitis, cholelithiasis (categories 574 and 575); and
• pancreatitis (577.0 or 577.1). Common respiratory causes of chest pain include the following: • pulmonary embolism (415.11 to 415.19); • pleurisy (511.0); • spontaneous pneumothorax (512.8); and • pulmonary hypertension (416.8). Some common musculoskeletal causes of chest pain may include costochondritis or Tietze’s disease (733.6), fibromyalgia (729.1), and injured ribs or pinched nerves.
Some other causes of chest pain may include a panic attack (300.01), shingles (category 053), and cocaine-induced chest pain (970.8 + 786.50), which should be coded as a poisoning since the patient had a reaction to a drug that was not prescribed. Coding and sequencing for chest pain are dependent on the physician documentation in the medical record and application of the Official Coding Guidelines for inpatient care.
