It hurts when I swallow food and water or take a deep breath in. What could this be ?  <response>: Thanks for asking your question completely understand your problem actually in this young age most common causes for your complaints is peptic ulcer gastritis. So dont have much of oily, spicy food. You can have a proton pump inhibitor like pantoprazole before meals for a couple of days.u should consult a pulmonologist gastroenterologist who can get a chest X-ray done, and other investigations needed to come to a diagnosis. does you smoke first thing you should do is quit smoking from now onwardsthanksregards feel free to ask more questions may god bless you with good health
