Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I sometimes have a sharp pain shoot just below the breast. It is usually on my right side, but has happened on my left side as well. It only lasts for a minute or so. It seems to help if I take a breath and hold it and release slowly. I try not to move during this time as it makes it worse.
