Costochondritis is actually inflammation and not infection. It’s basically inflammation of joint between bone and cartilage. Generally it goes on itself by 3-4 weeks but if you have a lot of problem, you can start Medicine to reduce inflammation. Thyroid does not have any relation with pain. If you have a lot of symptoms be sure that you have costochondritis only.
