Upper Chest Pain Around The Collar Bone When Breathing. Is This The Sign Of Nerve Pain Caused By C5-C7?
Hello, I recently went to a neurologist and they said there may be an issue with my c5-c7, and I need an MRI, while waiting for that MRI to be scheduled, I've had pain in my upper chest around my collarbone when breathing, and around my ribs when laughing or coughing, is this still a sign from the nerve pain cause by my c5-c7?
