[|Human|] I am a 30 year old female I just recently had back surgery for a herniated disc fragment pressing on a bunch of nerves includeing my sciatica. Well after my surgery I have been have dull chest pains and have to take take deep breaths a lot the pains mostly come from me walking around or at night. I was stuck in bed for 2 months prior because of the sciatic pain. I had both an ekg done and xrays but both of those came back ok. Do you think it could be from a lack of excercise or somethng else?
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. First no need to worry about major heart and lung diseases because your ECG and chest x-ray are normal. Since you were bedridden for 2 months due to spine surgery, possibility of stiffness related chest pain is more likely. So start your routine activities, do some exercises, apply warm water pad on affected areas' chest. All these will improve stiffness and reduce pain. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
