I am having pain under my right breast. I fell a week ago and thought I broke my ribs but I had X-rays and my ribs look fine. It hurts to take a deep breath but the pain gets so bad.. I was diagnosed with histoplasmosis 4 years ago they have taken me off the spornox twice and it keeps growing back I just stopped taking it dec. 1 could it be back or is thus something else
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. No need to worry about histoplasma infection. This is unlikely cause for your chest pain. In my opinion, you are mostly having musculoskeletal pain due to blunt chest trauma because of fall. So better to avoid strenuous exercise and heavyweight lifting. Avoid bad postures in sleep and movements causing pain. Apply warm water pad on affected site. You may need painkiller and muscle relaxant too. So don't worry, you will be alright. Hope I have solved your query. Wish you good health. Thanks.
