rib inflammation (costochondrosis)	Can't Post

Hi all
i have costochondrosis (=inflammation of ribs) and wanted to know if anyone had any tips, esp since simple things such as chest opening passive postures or deeper breathing can aggravate it. I've been avoiding yoga in a bid to let it settle down, but am unhappy about this!

Any advice about experiences, helpful asanas etc would be great!

thanks

(ps dovelandscapes, got your message, but how can i reply to you?)

i also have this intracostal rib muscles inflammation issue since many years.
.it pains while lying down on floor postures like dhanur asana and twisting efforts on chair too and
our teacher tied a belt on my ribs which helps it not to aggravate the inflamation
and i can do the twisting better n also to twist the upper skin in opposite direction of your twist
