Answer 1

Likely gastritis: Other possibilities include irritable bowel syndrome or peptic ulcer disease, or simply gas (flatulence). Would discuss with your doctor, but may try otc simethicone (gas-x) and/or Omeprazole (prilosec) to see if that helps.

Answer 2

Check it out: Could be due to poor digestion, ulcers or other things. Would see your doc.

Answer 3

Mold allergy: Mold can trigger allergic reactions or cause non-specific irritation however the symptoms are ususually respiratory (lung or nasal) irritation or eye irritation, not "pains".

Answer 4

Not pain: Chronic mold exposure can cause respiratory symptoms in susceptible individuals. It rarely causes body pain, unless you are sick all the time.

Answer 5

Could be...: Several things. Painful periods can be caused by fibroids, adenomyosis, endometriosis, hormone imbalance or you may just make a lot of the chemical that makes periods painful. You should definitely see your doctor for an exam, ultrasound and treatment options. There are a lot of options out there!

Answer 6

See a doctor: Lots of possible explanations but if it hurts to breath you should not put off getting an evaluation and treatment. The list of problems includes respiratory problems (such as asthma), respiratory infections (ie pneumonia, bronchitis), cardiac (heart) problems, musculoskeletal (muscle & bone) problems, back problems, even abdominal (stomach/intestine) problems.

Answer 7

Chest pain: In order to stop the symptom you have to treat the underlying cause. The list of ailments that can cause chest pain with breathing is very long. In addition some of the causes are life threatening. The best thing you could do is schedule an appointment with your doctor.

Answer 8

Phantom Pain: Psychotherapy and/or hypnotherapy may help. It can be a very intractable syndrome. Pain specialists may offer additional treatment.

Answer 9

Let it be food...: When it comes to chronic pain, the usual medications prescribed or recommended by doctors include analgesics, non-steroidals, muscle relaxants, anti-seizure medications, anti-depressants, and others. Dr. Neal barnard has written a book about a revolutionary dietary approach which has helped many of my patients who have tried it--without any side effects. It is entitled "foods that fight pain.".
