I have had intermittent pain for about 4 to 6 mos. or longer above right breast much like a muscular pain, can t raise up off the bed or a seat without severe pain when I try to get out of bed or switch upright position under right shoulder blade. All of this seems to radiate into right throat/neck area,coughing sometimes dry/sometimes mucous,nighttime and daytime. Currently on meds for acid reflux, asthma, musculoskeletal pain. Recently had a EGD and am scheduled to see a Pulmonary Dr. next week. And, a consultation with another dr. regarding swallowing/choking issues. An Esophageal manometry is recommeded as testing for further evaluation of dysphagia . I do have a hiatal hernia .
Since you already suffer from asthma, acid reflux and musculoskeletal pain, i'll attribute it to these conditions. However, Costco Chat Doctor.  You have to ensure that your asthma and acid reflux are well controlled. If despite adequate treatment for these conditions pain persists, take an analgesic like Tylenol and apply local heat and an analgesic gel. When you visit your pulmonologist discuss it with him.
