Thank you so much for getting me this info!! I really do appreciate it and will let you know what happens. All the best, kelleygirl
your probably experiencing costochondritis or pre-cordial catch syndrome...it should get better after a few weeks...i got pre-cordial catch and it took six weeks to go away...you should have another chest and spinal x-ray but your probably alright...just google these conditions and you will have the answers you seek...good luck and if you have any questions feel free to ask
well... I had a virus that led up to this and they did do blood work. I am muscular build and have worked out most of my life. I have had no trauma that could have caused this. I don't remember hurting or straining it at all during a workout either. The pain is dull ( no sharpness) but it's like a throb and pretty doggone uncomfortable! And it's weird b/c it can hurt when I take a breath sometimes and other times not. In other words not consistent. Although when I turn to the right, it hurts every time! And it doesn't really hurt at all when I turn to the left. As far as the antibiotics, I think they gave me a Z-pak. Along with some meds for the cough. No, I do not have a persistent cough. I consider myself pretty healthy, I try to eat right and I definitely DO NOT smoke. My dad always smoked in the house when I was growing up. I have bad allergies that have gotten worse as I've gotten older. Sinus infections from the allergies have really been my only problems. I have developed some unknown source of food allergies. And NO to strange sexual contact....thats ok. My husband wants me to go to dr. but I just hate to go and feel like a dummy if its nothing.( which is exactly what I want it to be.)
there are a few possibilities...musculoskeletal and respiratory... you say you had pneumonia...what was the causing bacteria?virus?fungus? did they do blood work? what is your physical build?history of spinal trauma or back or neck pain? what sort of excercises do you do for your chest or arms? can you describe the pain? radiate?central? severe?mild? what sort of anti-biotics were you on?i dont like they found "white dots" on your lungs...have you had a persisting cough if so for how long? any other symptoms at all? any lightheadedness? how is your diet? do you smoke? any history of infections? any recent sexual contact with someone out of the "ordinary" sorry to ask... there are many things i just need a little more info...
