Costochondritis, also known as Tzietze's syndrome, is inflammation of the rib and joint.
The joint connecting the sternum and the first rib is a cartilaginous joint known as the sternocostal joint. This joint provides flexibility and allows for movements during breathing.
Yes
The junction of the rib and cartilage is the costochondral joint.
The costal cartilages connect most ribs to the sternum through a joint called the costochondral joint. This joint is made up of the cartilage of the rib and the cartilage of the sternum, allowing for flexibility and movement during breathing.

kind of since you mention it, but i think technically no. but i am not a doctor.interesting question though.
Fore rib is a cut of beef. It comes from high on the animal, near the midline (feel where your own ribcage ends, move your hand towards your spine and this will give you an idea where the joint comes from). Fore rib is a joint that can either be boned out and rolled, then roast, or it can be left and cooked 'on the bone' - this is what is traditionally served as British roast beef.
Yes, you could have cracked a rib but without an x-ray there is no way to know for certain. If you have any questions about something like that you should seek medical attention as soon as possible. Whether a rib is cracked or not, the treatment is to just let it heal. If the rib is out of place, at the costosternal joint or the costovertebral joint, a chiropractor can reallign the joint to reduce any stress or tension in the area. This can make a tremendous difference in your ability to have regular mobility again.
