I am experiencing pain on my right side back area on the side of my body. I have trouble breathing deeply, coughing, sneezing, bending, laying down. A month ago I had the same problem and went to emerg they found nothing wrong. The Xray taken on my left side also revealed nothing. They gave me Naproxen. I went to the clinic a few days after and they gave me a puffer. I also hear rattling in my side when I am breathing as if I have a chest cold but its not in my chest its actually in my side. The day I went to emerg I had sharp pains in my chest but on the right side only. My right side ribs feel as though I have been coughing for a week or have been punched repeatedly, its that sore. Where do I go from here.
Hello ! Sorry to hear about your pain, and can understand how disturbing it could be. Basically, if investigations pertaining to chest and heart and blood have come out normal , it could be possible that the pain is originating from a muscle. Is it exactly in the upper middle back , close to you shoulder blade?  A deep-rooted trigger point, when activated can cause agony. I strongly suggest you seek opinion from a physiotherapist to check out stiff muscles / trigger points, joint dysfunction.  Your physio if required may also refer you back to the orthopedic for investigations or medications.
