Suggest Treatment For The Soreness In The Chest And Cramps Around The Sides Of The Neck
I am experiencing soreness in my chest. Sometimes it feels like I have something stuck in my chest and the pain come and goes. This pain leads to me breathing shallow. When I lay down flat on my stomach it gets worst. (the pain is located around my sternum area.) This also leads shortness of breathe and just recently I have been experiencing discomfort in my neck. It seems like a cramp is moving on the sides of my neck. I have been to the er two times and I had test taken. They said they don t see any thing.

Hi,
I read your query and understand your concern
First you have to be calm as all test done are normal so you have ruled out any risky desease
Pain can have a lot of causes and the the one which can't be diagnosed by examination is fibromyalgia
It is a clinical diagnose and it is confirmed when all other causes are excluded
If you ruled out any cardiac problem, chest xray is normal and no thoracal or sternal fracture are seen you should use pain killers and soon will be fine again
Hope my answer has helped you
Best regards
