Chest Pain

2017-02-19 19:58:29
Having chest pain on the left side for about 4 days now. Hurts when I clear my throat, cough, or sneeze. Want to make sure it's not anything serious like my heart. Hoping it's just a strain in my pectoral from working out. I see no swelling or bruising though. Help please?

Hello. Chest pain on coughing or sneezing is probably due to costochondritis or muskuloskeletal pain. It can be controlled by taking pain medications. Still to rule cardiac or other serious illnesses, do a ECG & a Chest Xray. Review with reports. Hope this helps.
