Is it okay that I have pain all over my chest and under my heart after bronchoscopy? I have pain in my throat but I know this is normal.
Brief Answer:
No this is not normal.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your question on Ask a doctor forum.
I can understand your concern.
Throat pain is normal after bronchoscopy.
But chest pain and pain under heart after bronchoscopy are not normal.
In my opinion, you should get done chest x ray and ecg.
Chest x ray is needed to rule out any lung complication.
Ecg is needed to rule out any heart complication.
If both these are normal then no need to worry.
Please let me know
1. For what disease, you underwent bronchoscopy?
2. Before how many days?
Please reply me answers of above asked questions, so that I can guide you better. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
