I think I have pleurisy, but the pain is in the back side of my lungs, I have piercing pain in the lower right side, I not constant, but if I cough, move positions, or some times I'm not doing anything.  It is sharp and seems to take my breath away.  Is this normal to have pain in my back around my lower lungs?

Hi,

How are you?
Pleurisy is an inflammation of the pleura. It can occur as a result of infection and inflammation.
The treatment involves the treatment of the underlying cause that is treating infection with antibiotics.
Strapping the chest with an elastic bandage is sometimes done to relieve the symptoms. NSAIDS and steroids show significant improvement of symptoms.
Please discuss these options with your doctor. Take care!
