hi im a heavy cigerette smoker and now everytime i cough i have this pain in my chest right below my right brest and also on the side of my right brest a little below my right arm pit. I can barely cough because it hurts so much and i cant even lay on my right side. It hurts mostly when i cough but now its getting worse to where i have it everytime i move. It feels very very sore, it feels like its swollen but i dont know/think it is, its just a horrible pain almost like a tore,broke, or pulled something? I know i neede to quit and ive already started today is my first day though. What can i do about this pain??

### output:

Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Since you are a active smoker, we should definitely rule out pleurisy (inflammation of pleura) for your chest pain. Common causes for pleurisy are lung infection, bronchitis and pleural effusion. So better to consult pulmonologist and get done clinical examination of respiratory system, chest x-ray and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test). Chest x-ray is must for the diagnosis of lung infection and effusion. If chest x-ray is normal then no need to worry much. Musculoskeletal pain is more likely. So avoid movements causing pain. Apply warm water pad on affected areas of chest. Take simple painkiller like paracetamol or ibuprofen. Don't worry, you will be alright with all these. Quit smoking as soon as possible because it is not a good habit. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
