Suggest Treatment For Sore Throat And Chest Pain Along With Wheezing
about two week ago I went to a walk in clinic, the physician said she heard wheezing in my left side area, I went to get an antibiotic Z-Pack for a sore throat, the past week I have had really bad chest pain: heart pain when I breath in especially if I inhale hard. Thoughts?
Hello, This sounds like pleuritic pain. If you had abnormal sounds on auscultation then it is possible that you've got a lung infection. Doing an x-ray of the chest would clarify things. A less common but worth mentioning potential cause is pericarditis. I hope I've helped. Kind regards!
