What causes pain in the middle of my chest?
Patient: Hello doctors very recently i have had a pain in the middle of my chest, it feels like a very small lump but the pain occurs when i touch it, stretch and sometimes when i'm breathing, i'm a male 17 year old with no history of asthma etc. i weigh 73.4 kg and have a very active lifestyle but i dont believe this pain was created through me practising my sports as i noticed this when i just woke up one day Doctor: Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.  I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. This is likely a musculoskeletal pain, and there is no need to worry much. Use diclofenac gel for local application and tab Diclofenac whenever needed with tab pantoprazole. If it doesn't resolve in a week then visit a local doctor for examination.Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.Regards,Dr. Sagar Makode
