I'm 20. Female. And i am having chest pains along with shortness of breath and an ear ache only in the left in the ear. I was "working out" the other day and i believe i may have pulled a muscle but it hurts way too muc my chest feels really tight and it hurts to really move around (esp laying down)

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
By your history and description, possibility of musculoskeletal pain due to work out is more.
So follow these steps for better symptomatic relief in musculoskeletal pain.
1. Avoid heavyweight lifting and strenuous exercise (work out).
2. Avoid bad postures in sleep.
3. Avoid movements causing pain.
4. Take painkiller and muscle relaxant drug.
5. Apply warm water pad on affected areas.
6. Sit with proper back and chest support.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these in 2-3 days. If not improving after 2-3 days then consult doctor.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
