Hello, I've Been Having Severe Health Anxiety Regarding Pain In
Hello, I've been having severe health anxiety regarding pain in my right serratus anterior area.
The pain rubs down the side of my rib, the affected areas are usually tendered to touch, I get pain that extends underneath the pectoral region, it feels muscular in nature but I am unsure.
I did have an an X-ray performed; Lungs were clear, no bone issues.
I am only 20, not a smoker. I was pretty active and worked out prior to the issue.
I do not know if this is muscle, I'm afraid it's some sort of lung cancer or fatal disease, which is extremely unrealistic but it has caused a lot of anxiety and stress on me.
