Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am feeling like a sharp pain under my left side of my chest, it gets worse when I laugh or when I sleep over that side or if I take deep breathes, this pain started 2 days ago and it is still there. I am taking tylenol for the pain but the pain doesn't go away, what is it? and how can i get rid of it?
Probably it's just an inflammation in the ribs or muscle wall of the chest. Take an analgesic and antiinflammatory like Catafast twice per day for two weeks and sees how it's going.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Dalia Nayel
