Pleurisy?: Chest pain with taking a deep breath suggests possible pleurisy (pain from inflammation of the lungs outer lining). However, although one has no fever, it could be due to early bronchitis or tacheitis (early inflammation of the large airways of the lung). Less common might be pain from a rib fracture.

Costochondritis: Often of viral origon the cartillage along the breastbone can become sore. Usually we make sure your heart and lungs are good and look for tenderness in the anterior chest to the side of the breastbone. Take some Motrin or aleve (naproxen) to help calm it down.

4 days of high fever (102.2-103.5) w/ severe headaches, body aches, dizziness, vomiting. Now start to feel chest pain, shortness of breath, rapid heart rate (150+bpm). Is it from dehydration and flu? Could I have peumonia or myocarditis?

I ate spicy food around 11pm last night and It was the last day of my period. Im currently feeling pain and a little pressure in my chest. I dont have any fever or cough. Do you think this could be a sign of corona or is it more like heart burn symptoms
