Question 1

last night i had a sudden onset of a severe dull ache between my shoulder blades, kept me up all night. it hasnt subsided with any meds (panado) its between shoulder blades to the right...no front chest pain,only slight cramp sensation now and then.

Accepted Answer

Pain: The description is very much muscular in nature. Deep tissue massage and heat should help. Also couple with gentle stretches.

Question 2

what cause chest pain worse with front or back head movement?

Accepted Answer

Not specific enough: I'm afraid that your symptoms are not specific enough to make a diagnosis over the internet. Most cardiac issues are not related to head movement but sometimes vascular issues are. Musculo skeletal strain is the most likely cause but if the symptoms are new or you are particularly worried about this then it would be worthwhile seeking a medical evaluation as soon as possible.

Question 3

numbness in right arm  with chest pain felt in back and front of right side when coughing, what can this be?

Accepted Answer

Rib strain: Probably rib strain from coughing so much -- see your doctor make sure you don't have pneumonia or others more serious -- may need to get a chest xray.

Question 4

front left neck pain. very intense for a couple mins then goes away. no lumps no chest pain associated. has been going on for past 4 days?

Accepted Answer

Muscle: My first  choice is  muscle  but you need a full evaluation to make the diagnosis. There can be other causes of this like  disc, joint. You need to see your physician.

Question 5

i have an 8 yo son who is experiencing chest pain (front and back) when jumping on the trampoline. does anyone have any idea what could be the cause?

Accepted Answer

Chest pain: jJumping up and down may cause the heart to move to and fro, thereby hitting the chest wall and causing a painful sensation. This is especially true if you child has thin chest wall

Question 6

my child tried to do a front flip on the trampoline and and landed hard on her back and hit her chest, she is still having chest pain two days later, should we go to the er?

Accepted Answer

: I would hate to expose a kid to the type of contagion and trauma that comes through an ER. The event likely produced some musculoskeletal trauma  that may include rib injury. An urgent care center with x-ray capability or her regular doc would be a good venue. Cool compresses over painful areas will help. If she can't sleep, take her in.

Question 7

what causes front and rear chest pain while swallowing? it feels like the food stuck and then pass through. but i dont have any problem in breathing.

Accepted Answer

Front and rear chest pain: One  possibility  is possible food impaction secondary to esophageal spasm.This can happen when people swallow food too quickly;not chewing food well ; stricture or even a tumor(very rare) 
The esophagus gets tight , constricts , causing chest or back pain.It's not connected to lungs .
Stress can be underlying factor in some patients.
If persists, might need removal of food in ER or need endoscopy

Question 8

snap stern when push my chest in front, pressure in chest, sometimes small chest pain in left side (like 2 secods intermittent) ecg ok in may, bp ok?

Accepted Answer

Press the: site of your pain.  If you can elicit the same response, then its probably muscular.  I see  you 've listed ischemia as a condition.     If you to have cardiac ischemia, see your cardiologist for further treatment ( left heart cath/stent placement).

Question 9

sharp chest pain, left-front, 3rd rib from bottom. ~5 min of pain 1-2 times/day. no pain w/breath/touch. pain always same place/type/duration. thanks!

Accepted Answer

Chest pain.: More information will be needed. With chest pain on the left without obvious cause or origin, you want to rule out cardiac causes. If all work ups are negative, you have been having this pain for sometimes and it does not cause any problem, it might be Prinzmetal's angina. Please follow up your doctor for further evaluation.

Question 10

i often have chest pain after i raise things in front of me, even things that arent heavy for others. now it is there when i swallow too. it is around the middle of breastbone i have been having this since january. could it be heart related?

Accepted Answer

: Your symptoms definitely dont sound normal.. you would likely need some imaging before cause can be delineated. Would advise to please see your doctor.
