A member asked:

I have chest discomfort that is not heart problems and is not an asthmatic issue. it's uncomfortable to take deep breaths. i don't get it.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Causes of CP: If heart problems and asthma r/o then chest wall pain/costochondritis possibly the next real possibility. Pleurisy it's another possibility from a prior pneumonia or any inflammatory disease like lupus, rheumatoid arthritis etc. Other possibility is acid reflux disease. Stay with your doctor. Sometimes takes time to match a symptom with a cause/diagnosis.
