Yes, there can be a connection between MRSA (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus) and costochondritis. MRSA is a type of bacteria that can cause various infections, including skin infections and, in some cases, infections of the bones or joints. Costochondritis, which is inflammation of the cartilage connecting the ribs to the breastbone, can occur due to infections, including those caused by MRSA, although it is more commonly associated with physical strain or injury. If an individual with costochondritis has a history of MRSA or shows signs of infection, medical evaluation is essential.
MRSA can enter any break (cut) in the skin.
There is no direct link between radiation exposure and costochondritis. Costochondritis is typically caused by inflammation in the cartilage that connects the ribs to the breastbone. However, radiation therapy can sometimes lead to inflammation in the chest area, which may present similar symptoms to costochondritis.
The coughing, itself, will not cause costochondritis, but if there is a viral infection in the chest, then that may be the cause.
MRSA is also known as the super bug. The meaning of an MRSA carrier is someone who either has the MRSA infection or someone who carries the bacteria but doesn't show any signs of illness yet they can still pass it onto others.

Many, many people are colonized with MRSA -- it lives on them without causing disease. "Cure" in the case of a MRSA-related rash or boil means that the skin problem is cured, but not that all MRSA has been eliminated from the person. A related question: how do you know that you're not colonized with MRSA yourself?
