I was punched in the center of my chest and am having pain similar to when I had pneumonia. Hurts to project voice too much or take deep breaths. Cannot see any physical signs of injury like a bruise, etc. Is it just bruised? Should I get it checked out?
Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic. I can understand your concern. If the chest pain is disturbing your routine activity then get a chest x ray done to rule out any lung contusion or rib fracture or it could be just a muscle pull. Do not lift heavy weights. Don't worry, you will be alright. Hope I have solved your query. Wish you good health. Thanks.
