A member asked:
Sharp middle chest pain last a few seconds for weeks now, previously had ecg, ekg , heart monitor and chest xray all came up ok, what could this be?

Sharp chest pain: It could be pleuritis or pericarditis. Get your ESR and c- reactive protein to be checked. If it is elevated then you need anti-inflammatory medication like indomethacin. Other differential is costochondritis, which also responds to an-inflammatory medication. Consult your physician.
