[|Human|] my 16 yr old daughter, otherwise healthy, experienced a sharp pain when she dove into the pool last night for swim practice. she says lower lung area. today it hurts when she drinks/swallows and pain is still there. she has a cough, but could be unrelated
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. In my opinion she should get done chest x-ray to rule out lung infection. Because swimming can cause aspiration of some water in lungs and this can lead to infection. Her symptoms like pain on coughing and swallowing can be due to infection. So we should first rule out lung infection. So get done chest x-ray. If chest x-ray is normal than no need to worry much. This can be due to muscle pull because of swimming. So ask her to avoid heavyweight lifting, strenuous exercise. Take Pain killer and muscle relaxant. Apply warm water pad on affected site. No need to worry, she will be alright.
