By : By the date of this post about a week has passed. Have you seen a medical professional? If so what was the outcome? I will take this opportunity to comment on your question. Pain associated with breathing along with chest pain definitely warrants a doctor's visit. If shortness of breath is present and/or the chest pain is persistent that's when i would say visit an urgent care or er. I hope you are well.
