What Causes Pain In Chest While Breathing And Sneezing?
Im pretty sure Ive pulled a chest muscle.....in looking at all the info. onllne. I do have severe chest pain at times....none to very little other times. It hurts when I sneeze, cough or take deep breaths. It is a bit scary as it is on the left side of my chest. This has gone on for 10 days and is now affecting my back/ neck. I was lifting weights but obviously have stopped. Im thinking of going to a chiropractor tommorrow as it seems most of the time Im "guarding" the use of certain muscles and its affecting others. Any suggestions?

Respected sir/ madam
looking to your case and history you have provided it looks you have any muscle strain which is hurting you. due to pain of that its possible to have some kind of posture or guarding body does to avoid such pain.
You can have some hot fomentation and local analgesic ointment application. Also have some anti inflammatory and analgesic drugs orally along with proper rest to that part.
