What Can Cause Constant Pain In The Chest And Ribcage?

I’ve been having almost constant chest pains for the past few hours. What do you think it is? The chest pains happen quite frequently, multiple times a month and it’ll get hard to breathe at times too. Also, I’ll get sharp pains in my left rib cage at times.

Hello,

As you explain the history, it seems like a fibromyalgia. You can take painkillers and see how it is the pain.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
