Suggest Treatment For Chest Pain And Big Breath After Injury
Was in a car accident a week and 2 days ago. My chest hurt and went to the emergency room got xrays that showed nothing. Was told I had Blunt Trauma, Chest Contusion. Basicly my chest still hurts not all the time but when I cough or even burp it hurts real bad. I find myself occasinally taking in a big breath and it hurt. Hurt to bend over lay down get up etc. What could be wrong. I know I need to see my doctor but could not get an appointment until this coming week. Thank you very much for helping. Chris
Cannot say in your particular case without an actual exam, but perhaps you can. If the chest is sore to touch, then it is sore. The chest wall moves with breathing and if it is sore then breathing would aggravate it. Aspirin like drugs are often helpful.
