My chest hurts when I bend over. It comes and goes. I lifted a large and heavy piece of furniture and after that it started hurting that night. It went on the next day. Hard to take a deep breath and when I lay down it hurt. It lasted for a day and a half. I went away but came back last night with a lot of discomfort. It is not hurting as I'm sitting still, only when I bend over
Hi. 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 infection or it could be just a muscle pull. Do not lift heavy weights Possibility of musculoskeletal pain is more. Ibuprofen is anti inflammatory. You will definitely improve with combination of painkiller and muscle relaxant drugs. Also apply warm water pad on affected areas. Avoid movements causing pain. Don't worry, you will be alright in 1-2 weeks. But better to first rule out lung infection. Don't worry, you will be alright. Hope I have solved your query. Wish you good health. Thanks.
