What to do if i'm having very bad pain in lung area?

EMERGENCY!: Without more detail, very little can be deduced about your pain. It could be anything from a simple rib dysfunction to pulmonary embolus or heart attack - the latter 2 of which are potentially lethal within a very short time.You are NOT equipped to deal with this, at home and must be evaluated by medical personnel. Call an Ambulance, NOW. Do not drive yourself.
