Thanks everyone! I thought it was a really weird question to ask here. I will consult my chiropractor and my family doctor. Hockey, I will try that test out too. I would have thought the swelling would have dissipated after 16 months but flare ups could be a factor too. My sternum was broken too so some other areas to explore.

Again, thanks for the support!
