I ve experienced this a few times in the past few months and troubled about it today. I had this happen....then had a headache. I ve taken some Advil. [/INST] Hello, I have studied your case. Due to compression of this nerve root there is pain in your rib cage and chest. Due to occlusion of vessels there can be burning sensation. I will advise you to do MRI thoracic spine, HRC [CHEST] and EMG- CV [nerve conduction study]For these symptoms analgesic and neurotrophic medication can be started. Till time, avoid lifting weights, Sit with support to back. You can consult physiotherapist for help. Physiotherapy like ultrasound and inferential therapy will give quick relief. I will advise checking your it B12 and it D3 level. Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow-up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. Wishing you good health. Take care. </s>
