A member asked:
I have a chest pain near the center for the past 4 days and worsens when lying down or try to get up, cough, or inhale deeply. also coughing at night?

Chest pain: These symptoms are most compatible with pleurisy and associated pneumonia, although bronchitis, pericarditis or pinching of intercostal nerve or muscle in the rib cage are possibilities. In any event you should be examined by a physician, even if you have no fever,sweats or chills. A chest xray, complete blood count and possibly an EKG will most likely be part of the evaluation.
