Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
When I bend or reach at work for a period of time (sometimes after15 minutes, sometimes after a couple of hours) or sometimes just washing a sink full of dishes at home, I get a very uncomfortable pain under my right breast that wraps around to my back. After sitting or stopping the activity for awhile it goes away. I am maybe 20 lb overweight and have been most of my life. I walk and my work requires a lot of physical activity. Is this just me being out of shape or something I should have checked out?
Welcome to HCM. Pain while working is most likely due to fibromyalgia.(muscle pain) It usually occurs due to improper position during sitting,sleeping,working. Start nsaid with muscle relaxant for 3 to 5 days. You can apply nsaid gel locally. Avoid tight undergarment.wear proper supportive undergarment. Try to reduce your weight by proper diet planning and regular exercise. Consult your doctor if pain pain persists after 5 days primary treatment.
