Question:
What is this Sharp Pain on my left side of my chest/rib?
This started yesterday, I woke up and bam pain on my left side right near my left pecs. I thought I strained it from lifting the day before but the next day it was worst and it is painful whenever I move to the left, stretch it, deep breathe, bend over etc.
I have been reading in forums that its a minor thing, but I do not think its minor since its on and off pain.
it feels like my heart is going to explod when I know it isnt cause its not near my heart I think, its right underneath my chest right on the left side
it starts with a sting until I get use to it and I do not feel it and then when I get up from my chair pain, sit down pain, I am trying to get a good grasp as to what it might be and how to cure it
I will be goin to the doctor on thursday since tomorrow is july 4th, but that is a long time I think! so how can I coop with it till then?
Answers:
it sounds like a strain, a strain is always worse on second or third day. if it get worse after day two, go see doctor as a precaution....
