A member asked:

What can cause chest (breast) and back pain on the right hand side?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Thoracic disc: Could be nerve root entrapment due to bulging disc; could be rib fracture, also gall stone possible. Unlikely in your age group, but make sure you get a lung x-ray if this persists, to rule out tumour, or infection. Good luck.
