[|Human|] I am gettinge severe pains in the middle of my chest just below my ribs. My back is hurting also in the process. This has been going on for almost 3 weeks and seems to be getting worse. It is now to where I can hardly breathe and it also feels like there is a big balloon wanting to pop.Help
[|AI|]  Hi thanks for asking question. You have not mentioned other history regarding smoking, fever, cough or any other positive history... Here chest x-ray done that can give better idea about your condition. Your physical examination with auscultation by stethoscope should be done.... If you are smoker then x-ray can rule out changes of emphysema or bronchitis. If fever present x-ray done for seeing consolidation. Pulmonary function test useful for distinguish between restrictive and obstructive disease. If no respiratory cause found then takeover blood pressure and ECG done for further wok up. If still no cause identifiable it could be simple muscular strain pain. Rest and analgesic useful for it. I hope your concern solved. Take care. Chat Doctor.
