I was diagnosed with costochondritis last year after a chest infection. It does get better. It's inflammation where the ribs meet the sternum and can be really painful even to breathe. I'd use a warm not hot, hot water bottle and take your painkillers, Ibuprofen helped me but some people can't take it. Most importantly rest and don't lift anything too heavy or do anything too strenuous.
I hope this is helpful. Feel better soon
