What Causes Chest Pain When Diagnosed With Asthma?

I have severe asthma, lately when I do too much, I get an extreme stabbing pain in the right side of my chest. this pain can sometimes double me over until it stops do you think this could be a problem or could it just be a result of my asthma acting up. I do not wheeze when I take an attack I just put my head down and close my eyes, then when it passes I come conscious. Thank you for listening, something most people do not do anymore.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

It may be a episodic attack of bronchial asthma. Other possibilities like pleurisy or pneumonia or cholicystitis or intercostal muscle spasm etc. Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. Please consult your physician he will examine for other causes for chest pain and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
