YES! Especially after surgery, but gas can travel virtually anywhere in the body and cause pain. Some other causes of pain in the chest: heart problems (obviously), pleurisy (inflammation of the lining around the lungs), heartburn. Gas and pleuricy give sharp pain...a heart attack can as well. Heartburn is normally a dull, burning pain.
When a person suffers from angina, they often report having chest pains and shortness of breath. Other symptoms include, tightness and aching along the chest area.
These muscles can sometimes be strained and can lead to chest pain in that area.
I dont know what you mean by wind or acid... but most often pains in the chest signal an impending heart attack or GERD.... gastroesophageal reflux disease..... big word for excessive heartburn.
Well, i have celiac disease and yes i have pain in the chest area but i don't eat gluten and i still have the pains.
No. Pleurisy a condition where you get sharp chest pains, usually limited to a relatively small area of the chest, that is worse when you take a deep breath. It is thought to usually arise from inflammation of the lining of the lung (aka the pleura). Tuberculosis is a specific infection that commonly affects the lung (although it can spread elsewhere). Tuberculosis is one of many causes of pleurisy.
Pleurisy is primarily caused by viral infections, such as the flu or pneumonia, which lead to inflammation of the lining of the lungs and chest cavity (pleura). Other causes include bacterial infections, autoimmune conditions, and lung diseases like tuberculosis or lung cancer.
Chest muscle pain is mostly an indication of a serious medical condition. At most times, this type of pain is considered to be a medical emergency which would require immediate attention. Patients usually suffer from pain in upper, lower, right as well as left part of their chest area. The symptoms are such that the patient suffering from chest muscle pain experiences a sense of heavy pressure in the chest area. The patient also experiences a sense of discomfort. The patient may feel a stabbing pain in the chest if the patient had a heart attack. Other symptoms can be shortness of breath, palpitations, dizziness etc. Hope this helps.
Yes, a pulled chest muscle can cause difficulty in breathing because it can lead to pain and discomfort in the chest area, making it harder to take deep breaths.
Yes
The two main symptoms of atelectasis would be shortness of breath (dyspnea) and decreased chest wall expansion.Other characteristics include diminished breath sounds and fever.shortness of breath and decreased chest wall expansion. If atelectasis only afects a small area of the lung, symptoms are ususally minimal. If the condition affects a large area of the lung and develops quickly, the individual may turn blue
Yes it can. I'm currently having chest pains from sleeping the wrong way. Be sure to take ibuprofen & try to relax as much as possible. You may find it difficult to take deep breaths but don't worry. Just let the pain go away by itself & try to sleep on your back at night to give your chest a rest from the pain
pleural space, which is the area between the lung and the chest wall. This accumulation of air can cause the lung to collapse partially or completely, leading to symptoms like chest pain and shortness of breath. Treatment may involve draining the air and monitoring the condition closely.
