Shortness of breathe
From last 20-25 days I have a pain in my upper middle right chest but I feel that pain only when doing any movement or stretch my chest.But the pain bearable and not so severe.But from last 3 days sometimes in middle I feel I have to take deep breathes and I feel shortness of breathe while playing or climbing stairs which I don't used to feel before.I had done MDCT chest CT scan without contrast 3 months ago because I had too much cough at that time but it came normal.Right now I don't have any cough but this breathing issue and little bit pain in upper right chest which is related to movement.So what could be the reason and what should I do now?
