Consider eval: Hi. Sorry to hear you are feeling pain with your lung. I think the first thing you could try is laying on your left side instead of your right and possibly propping up your mattress with pillows. But more importantly, I think you should consider discussing with your physician to see if you need a chest x-ray to see if there is anything going on that is causing your symptoms. Hope this helps

See your: Physician or go to the ER or a walk in clinic. Have them check it out. Don't put this off.
