Im a 16 year old female. Iv been experiencing occasional sharp pain in my chest and often get the feeling I cant breath properly for up to 4 seconds, where I feel as if theres no oxygen, I have had an asma test and an ECG however mother came back as um usual
Hi thanks for asking question. You have normal ECG so cardiac cause here seems to be less likely. First you might have such pain by bad sleep posture. Simple analgesic can be taken. Hot compress found useful. Take sleep in supine position. Second by any hard activity or weight lifting of heavy object can lead to muscular strain and such pain can occur. Analgesic taken for it. Third if you have gastric problems then by it chest pain can occur. Treat it with omeprazole or suitable treatment. Mostly above-mentioned causes most likely in your case. But if still want to rule out if history of cough and fever then respiratory viral infection has to be ruled out. Possibility of pneumonitis like infection also has to be ruled out. Chest x-ray and CBC will be helpful. Antibiotic may be needed for it.Finally, if you are taking excess stress then also pain can occur. Wish you good health. Chat Doctor.
