Sneeze and Pain

[pault]

I often sneeze and get alot of pain in my body.  They can be from my groin area to my chest and neck areas like maybe from the huge release of pressure when I sneeze.  Is this abnormal.  Addtionally, I have a pain in my chest occasionally towards the left side directly adjacent to my breast bone in the middle.  I was a chronic drinker and just quit drinking.  Do I have problems.  I have no family doctor.

Sneeze associated pain, in just about any part of the body is common and perfectly normal.  However, you should see a doctor about the occasional pain you are having in your chest, since any chest pain should be evaluated.
