Hi well come to HCM.
Pain in lung or pain in chest both are different. If in chest it could be in most of
the cases on rt side could be musculoskeltal.But pain in lung could be due to
common condition like pneumonia, effusion, tuberculosis, lung abscess, pneumothorax
etc. So give details about Duration, associated conditions like fever appetite your
age, wt etc. to help you more. Thanks
