Sore chest

[TOA]

Guys just wondering (if anyone can help).

 

Sometimes for no reason I get a weird pain in my chest, it's about 5cm down my body directly under the left nipple.

 

If I just adjust myself it tends to go away, but today for the first time after running (as it was raining) to my car when I got inside my car the pain came about.

 

I'm only 22 fit and healthy, is this normal or am I paranoid?

 

Thanks,

TOA

It could be a problem with the muscles between your ribs. Whatever it is, if you are concerned, you should go to your doctor.

you could have pulled a muscle or it could be gas. id take a Maalox and rub Vix on the sore spot. itll sooth the pain and release any trapped gas that could be causing the discomfort.

Whether it could be from exercising or just at rest, and doesn't seem to improve, then do consider seeing the doctor & describe your exact symptoms. It could be the muscles, it could be related to your breathing, but we can't exactly determine it.

 

I know that sometimes when I exercise I get a upper chest tightness that makes it more difficult for me to breathe. This had been going on for years, so I wasn't sure if I might have a mild asthma or exercised induced asthma. So the doctor gave me a albuterol inhaler to be used when the breathing problem or chest tightness comes on.

 

Hope you figure out what you need!
