Suggest treatment for severe chest pain
Patient: i have had a constant searing pain around my right rib cage for about six months now for about four days i have been hurting between my shoulder blades and in my right shoulder i had my gall bladder removed two years ago so i know it 's not that i also experiance nausea and pain in upper chest area could this be some type of cancer Doctor: Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.I can understand your concern. Possibility of musculoskeletal pain is more likely. Don't think directly about cancer. Get done chest x ray first. If chest x ray is normal then no need to worry for cancer or other lung disease. Avoid movements causing pain. Apply warm water pad on affected areas of chest. Take simple painkiller like paracetamol or ibuprofen. Don't worry, you will be alright with all these. Avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
