A member asked:

I have a pain on left side under breast, difficulty to breath sometimes and get numbness of left arm. what could this be?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Could be: Coming from your heart, so see a doctor. Or it could be a lung problem such as infection or pulmonary embolus. Don't take any chances, go see a doctor.
