I had chest pain for hours only to hear hours later my chest cavity POP loudly like the metal cap popping off a glass bottle. Soon following extreme pain in the sternum causing the sharpest jolts of pain continually for days now....would lyrica help decrease any of this pain until I can pick up my Naproxen in a few days?

Hello, Kelly! How are you?

It would be best to have this checked out by your doctor to see what happened, you might have developed costocondroitis, or you may have separation of the rib cage.

The Lyrica may help, but it takes about 4 to 5 weeks to reach its full level of efficacy in your body. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and weight gain.

Is there anything else I can help with?
