summary:
I need to visit a PT, anyone have any recommendations for me? Thanks!

long story:
I have a workout related injury near my sternum that affects my chest workouts. When I first got it, I had trouble moving my arms around, and breathing. I went to the georgia tech health center, and they gave me aspirin, and lots of ice. They also told me not to worry about it. I had never gotten an injury like that before, so I figured it was standard procedure.

Anyway, a few months went by and the pain was there if I worked out that area. I was also able to stretch in the morning, and make it "pop". After the "pop", any pain/tension/stress in the area was gone. Unfortunately, I didn't do anything about it then, and it's now been about 10 months. I'd like to visit a PT and learn more about what the **** is exactly happening in my chest...

 

This sounds ridiculous but I usually have to crack my sternum in the morning. Feels just as good as cracking my back. I just though I was a freak. Let me know what you find out.

(I could recommend PTs but they are in BMORE so probably no help for you)

 

I'll definitely keep you posted. I live in Falls Church, so a PT in Fairfax could work well...
