I'm a 21 year old female, experiencing upper chest stiffness sensation when i get out of bed in the mornings. diminishes when i start my daily routine?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Arthritis? Myositis?: This sensation could indicate many different things. Questions that need to be answered: any chest tightness/wheezing/cough associated? Any heartburn/reflux? Any joint pain? Rashes? Anyone in family with autoimmune conditions or rheumatoid arthritis? This kind of complaint likely needs a good history and physical exam by a physician.
