[|Human|] I have cracking in chest and shoulders with minor pain. Been going on for 2 years. If i sit for a while I need to stretch again and cracking comes back. Sometimes its hard to breathe until I take an aleve. Also sounds wierd but xanax helps. I feel good when lying down but when I get up froma sleep it starts again. Any answers? Thanks
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Your discomfort is associated with specific movement and position. So possibility of musculoskeletal cause is more likely in your case. So avoid movements causing pain. Avoid bad postures in sleep. Avoid heavyweight lifting and strenuous exercise. Apply warm water pad on affected areas. You are also improved with Xanax. It is anxiolytic Chat Doctor.  So you are also having stress and anxiety. So better to consult psychiatrist and get done counselling sessions. Try to identify stressor in your life and start working on its solution. Counselling plays very important role along with anxiolytic
