What Does Pain Under The Breasts Along With Shortness Of Breath Indicate?
I have a lot of tightness and hurting under my breasts. The right side is the worst. It gets worse as the day goes on and is really a discomfort at night. Some shortness of breath. What could this be? Seems to be getting worse. It use to come and go but this time it has been going for more than a week
First of all it's sad to know what you had been going through lately.
Based on the history you have shared, chest X-ray, EKG may be needed to rule out lung or heart pathology however on basis of symptoms it's likely to be muscular.

Hi, First of all it s sad to know what you had been going through lately. Based on the history you have shared, chest X-ray, EKG may be needed to rule out lung or heart pathology however on basis of symptoms it s likely to be muscular. Using OTC analgesics like acetaminophen or Ibuprofen along with muscle relaxants like tizanidine may be needed. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
