A member asked:

Right side chest tightness. what could be the cause, it usually occurs during and after exertion although sometimes it is when i'm resting too.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Worse with breathing: For right sided chest discomfort, at rest or following exertion, i would think about myofascial syndrome, costochondritis, asthma, pneumonia, pleurisy, cholecystitis, or esophageal reflux. Many cases turn out to be neurocirculatory asthenia.
