Anyone know what I have...my chest hurts everytime I breathe!?
I'm pregnant and of course I don't want any kind of thing to effect me. About 5 days ago I started getting a somewhat sharp pain under the left side of my rib cage. I didn't think anything of it. Well, as the days have progressed it has moved into my entire chest until last night when my chest, sides, back, shoulders and neck were killing me. I couldn't' take more than shallow breaths and I was waiting till I felt that I couldn't breathe much longer and I was going to go to the hospital. Well, I took some tylenol and my fiance rubbed all over my painful areas and I fell asleep. This morning I feel better but it still hurts to breathe but not as bad and I can breathe deeper.
Anyone know what's up???
Answers:
sounds a little like pneumonia. get checked asap. also have them check you for a pulled chest wall muscle.
