Is Pain Under The Left Breast, Which Aggravates While Inhaling, A Concern?
Hi I ve had a pain in my left side just under my left breast since early on Thursday, it started out as a sharp pain and now it s more of a dull pain, it feels as though it s in my ribs. It hurts more when I breath in, cough, laugh etc. I ve not been sleeping great the past few days as I can t get comfortable. The pain has been constant (not going away) I was thinking about going to the walk in centre but don t know if it s serious or not. Thanks

Hello,
It could be a simple musculoskeletal pain.
As a first line management, you can take analgesics like Paracetamol or Aceclofenac for pain relief.
If symptoms persist, it is better to consult a physician and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
