| Fold your left leg over your right knee and cross over with your elbows to hit the transverse abdominus, intercostals and obliques. |

| The abdominal muscles contract and are resisted by the intercostals and diaphragm. |
| Three days later, the diaphragm and parasternal intercostals contained numerous inflammatory cells and necrotic muscle fibers. |
| Here the affected muscles are the intercostals, and in some cases the pectorals as well. |
| Another name for something similar to Tietze's syndrome is costal chondritis, which is the inflammation of the intercostals between the ribs. |
