Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I have pain in the chest on the right side and when I take a breath sometime, pain during breathing and also during movement of the right arm or other types of movement and feeling like vomit and weakness in my body. Tell me the symptoms of this pain.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Pain in the right side of the chest with breathing movements and nausea shows that you have some chest infection. Please follow this. X-ray chest to rule out infection, take tablet Zanaflex 2 mg three times a day till you get the report of X-ray (minimum three days). If pain improves and the X-ray is clear this means it is simply due to muscle spasm. If an X-ray shows infection or you get a fever or pain does not improve on taking Zanaflex please start some antibiotic like Azomax 250 mg after every 12 hours for a week.
