Hey, so yesterday I was in the gym and the last workout I did before playing basketball was a sort of pectoral contractor where you pull weighted handles together until your hands meet in the middle of your chest. It was my first time on the machine, but I did my usual weight and reps.
When I got home I noticed the right side of my chest was really tight. Usually when I get this feeling, I just stretch and after a pop it goes away. But now there was no pop and breathing deeply causes sharp piercing pains that increase in intensity the deeper I breathe. Even if I don't breathe certain movements also cause the sharp pains. Since yesterday, after I eat, the meal doesn't really sit well with me, and I may even regurgitate a portion of it. My mother has acid reflux, but I doubted it would be caused by a pulled muscle.
If possible, I'd like to avoid a trip to the ER (no med insurance) and wait for it to go away, but I really don't know what it is and if it even will go away.
Any input is appreciated, thanks!
