What Causes Pain In Shoulder And Chest?

I developed a pain in my right shoulder last night and as the evening progressed, found it impossible to take a deep breath. I also have pain in my chest. I am able to breathe, just not deeply. Plus, it seems worse when I was lying down trying to sleep. Should I see a doctor right away, or wait it out?

Hi,
It seems that you might be having strain or spasm of shoulder muscle giving rise this problem.
Take some analgesic, muscle relaxant medicine for 2-3 days and you will be alright.
Apply some analgesic, muscle relaxant cream locally.
Ok and take care.
