Sternum Pain when sleeping on side

I've been having a lot of pain in my sternum area for sometime when I sleep. I tend to sleep on my side(s) and the pain I get after awhile is terrrible, especially if I sleep on my left side - it feels as though my heart hurts. I do get relief if I hug a pillow of some sort close to my chest but if the pillow loosens during the night I wake up almost immediately with such pain. Does anyone know what this is??

i have this same problem guys. it comes and goes and some times it stays for a day. i read a lot about sternum pain in net. sternum pain cause because of sternum inflammation,vitamin deficiency,fatigue and any weight lifting. these are the common problems. its ok but you must consults the doctor about it.
