Specializes in Internal Medicine

Would need more info: Suspect you do NOT mean a punctured lung, pulmonary hypertension, or congestive heart failure (low sodium, low fluid intake for that one).

The somewhat dull pain is right in the middle of my chest. Pain worsens when I stretch up. It used to crack and feel relief when I stretched, but now the pain just remains when I stretch and feels like a tight pulling kind of pressure pain?
