Hello,  As of about noon (EST) today I have developed a pain in my upper right chest.  It hurts when I inhale.  I have not had a cold or the flu all winter.  I currently do not have a cold or flu.  No sore throat.  No sinus cold or drainage.  No cough.  No sputum.  No shortness o breath.  Just pain when I inhale.  I thought that it would go away but it seems to be getting more painful.  It is now 7:06 PM EST.
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Chest pain (worsening) during inhalation is commonly seen with pleurisy (inflammation of pleura). And most common cause for pleurisy is lung infection. So first get done chest x-ray. If chest x-ray is normal then no need to worry about pleurisy. Sometimes pulled muscle can be also caused similar kind of pain. So apply ice packs on affected areas. Avoid movements causing pain. Take combination of painkiller and muscle relaxant Chat Doctor.  Don't worry, you will be alright with all these. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
