Why Do The Left Side Of Adams Apple Starting To Hurt?
I started having breathing problems a few months ago. My allergy doctor put me on a steroid inhaler and it seemed to work but I've been having chest discomfort for a week or so. Now today the left side of my Adams apple starting hurting. I have an appointment in a week should I wait or do I need to go to Urgent Care?

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
You may need to be seen sooner rather than later for the chest pain , this may be related to your asthma.
If the pain in your throat is severe or not responding to pain killers this may also need early assessment.
If it is not severe then you may want to try pain killers first . This would include pain medications such as ibuprofen, cataflam, aspirin, naproxen.
I hope this helps
