Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Pain In The Chest Upon Deep Breathing?
I have been having mild pain in the center of my chest all day. It is worse when taking a deep breath or pressing on it. I also have pain in the upper center of my back, in between my shoulder blades. Over the past 2-3 hours, I have also started feeling achy all over and extremely tired. It is a little harder to breathe, like when you have bronchitis. I am probably just being a hypochondriac but the chest pain is bothersome and isn t getting better. Plus, my boss was just diagnosed with mycoplasma pneumonia. I do not know if I am running a fever but I do feel chills.
