Pain near ribcage/heart
 

since last night ive had a pain near my heart just below it feels like it's coming from the ribcage And everytime i breath to much it hurts so i have to breath really slow Also it hurts more when i lie down on the side it's hurting the pain goes up to my collar bone as well

anyone had this :puzzled:

Call 999...

have you cracked your ribs? if you having difficulty breathing you should have an X ray, should go Drs if its constant I rkn...or ring NHS helpline

Go hospital. I had something similar ages ago and had 3 cracked ribs

My old man has has cracked ribs twice, theyll want to check its not punctured a lung or anything! dont mean to scare you

I had this before. I went to the A&E but they didn't know what was wrong.

Yes i was looking up on yahoo other people who have had it said the exact same thing

Got any painkillers? Just take as many as you can :tongue:

thats what am doing :joker:

I had this once, I just ignored it and it went away after a few mins =\

it's going now :spin2::spin2::spin2::spin2::spin2:

Could just be indigestion .... that can be extremely painful

Pulled muscle?

Am not to sure what it was but the pain was down my right arm as well and my collar bone and the back of my neck

it was pretty intense as well

Its going slowly now

go to the hospital..... or we'll think you made the whole thing up.

LOL!!!!!

it does sound pretty random how it just went
I might go tommorow just to check up

so you didn't go ... in that case you have munchausen's. :P

:shocked::shocked::shocked::shocked:

lol... what? munchausen's .... what about it? hehe

I get this pain all the time. It can do with the way you have been sitting for a while. I know it will be sore but take MASSIVE breathes to stretch everything out again and do some little exercises.

I posted the almost exact same thing a few months back... I'll try and find it.

Except mine kept happening when I lay on just one side, happened for months.
Once I rested it (as in, lay only on one side, didn't lift anything heavy etc) for about a month it seems to have healed (except I'm still scared to lay on that side anymore).

I thought 2 things after reading that link...

1. it's too bad there's no Wii warm up and stretch game you can play before the virtual golf game. lol... that would be sad

2. seems andy has had that same prob for over a year lol... get it seen to.

Hahaha, or at least an anger management class between each green. I swear that game turns me into an animal.

Thankfully, my rib is now healed (well, at least I hope it is - I haven't dared sleep that way since the injury so I can't really test it).

but isn't the NHS free.... why do you all baulk at getting stuff like this checked out. .... what if you rib cracks and all your insides fall out?.... then you'll be embarrassed.!

I think I'd be a little more than embarrassed! ... though I'd be pretty embarrassed.

NHS is free yeah, but it means waiting in a packed waiting room with bleeding(literally, not the phrase "bleedin'") drunks and the result of many-a bar scourges for hours only to be told they don't really know (nor care) what is wrong with you and you'll have to come back in a week if symptoms persist.

Plus I'm from the North, we're well 'ard here.
