Hit In The Chest, Chest Pain, No Breathing Problems. Is Everything Fine?
I was just hit (punched) in my Chest like 40 min. ago I m 13 years old and I actually feel pretty normal but obviously my chest hurts I can breath normally I don t have problems breathing and I could take deep breaths I have sharp pains but it doesn t hurt dramatically I could lay down and I basically feel normal as a matter in fact I carried a heavy wieght and my Chest didn t hurt at all but I m usually really scared and paranoid when I get hit anywhere but do you think I m okay?

Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
It looks like YOU ARE OK THE WAY YOU DESCRIBE.
Kindly do not hesitate to take medical advice if
1. There is shortness of breath.
2. Discoloration of the chest wall.
3. There is blood in the sputum.
Take care
Regards
