Left Chest Hurts Every Time I Wake Up And Move After Competing In Martial Arts?




My doctor ran out of martial arts, 1 week after that my left chest hurt every time I woke up and moved in a certain position … when I got hit it felt like I was stabbed with a knife … did I have a broken bone or a deep wound? Thank you
Hello Jackal, thank you for asking at HealthReplies.com.



  

Injury in sports or self-defense training is quite often experienced because in these activities quite a lot of things are at high risk of causing injury to certain body parts especially if not done in the right way and there is no good security during the activities carried out.



  

Even though there are no visible signs of injury in the area you are complaining about (such as bruising, swelling, or redness), it is still advisable to check the complaint further to the doctor to determine whether there is a serious injury that occurred to you due to the complaint indeed it can be caused by a broken rib / crack or an injury to the chest muscles.



  

After ascertaining what condition you are experiencing, then you can also determine what therapy should be given based on these conditions.



  

Meanwhile, if the complaint is felt to be very disturbing, you can try taking pain relievers such as paracetamol according to the dosage on the package or applying topical pain reliever to the painful area, until there is further advice from the doctor. It is not advisable to massage the painful area until there are other suggestions from the doctor who examined you.



  

I hope this helps.
if your chest muscles are sore to touch or the pain can be reproduced with certain positions or movements, it's not serious and will improve with rest/time. but if you get a tight, heavy, or squeezing feeling deep in the chest with exercise such as walking or lifting, it's time to see your doctor as this may indicate a more serious problem. see more... a specialist. if the surgeon who did the procedure is still around. also physical therapy should help improve the range of motion. and strength. see more... probably a pulled muscle- go to the trainer. possibly a cracked scapula-ask the trainer then go to the doctor. lily<br><br>thank you for visiting health24.com.<br><br>i recommend that you make an appointment with a cardiologist, to rule ischemic heart disease. you should also have a chest x-ray, a mammogram and an ultrasound of your breast done, to exclude any underlying causes.<br><br>kind regards<br><br><br><br><br>dr anrich burger brief answer: shingles or nerve entrapment. detailed answer: hi. thanks for your query, albeit short and specific. to recapitulate: male/67 - currently overseas - returns to us tomorrow - severe pain in the are near left shoulder blade a few days ago - now subsided somewhat - severe bouts of... you shoud take to her pediatrician or er, she might need chest x ray just to make sure there is no fraction, give her tylenol (acetaminophen) or ibuprofen for pain, ice the sure bruised area until she gets cheched. i hope she feels better soon. good luck. see more... grace, i would have it checked out if i were you. the least would be a physical examination and a chest x-ray. good luck. if you indeed do have mh then you should have been treated in a hospital setting. not only can it cause a deadly increase in muscle metabolism, but it also can increase heart rate. i would recommend against any stimulant like caffeine right now. make sure with your doctor that you have mh. mh is a medical emergency! that sounds rough, i am sorry you aren't feeling well. my advice is just go to a different hospital to get a different view on your situation. please don't hold off on it, this problem really needs to be taken care of. hi, tara! every doctor is different with regard to your post-op regimen. by four months, i was on regular food, but you still may want to talk to the chefs at the restaurants. once you've been gastrically altered, protein is your very best friend, so they may be able to adapt a meal to make it heavy on the proteins. i even had a chef make me a pasta dish without the pasta on one of my walt disney world trips post-op. for the most part, you should be able to browse the menu and find something, but if you don't see something you think you can safely eat, you can ask for something else. you'll learn once you have your surgery and start eating real food again that some things are more tolerable than others, and you will want to stick with the things you know you can eat. i speak from experience that it is no fun to try a new food on vacation and end up laying on a theme park bathroom floor until your stomach feels better! talk to your surgeon to make sure you know what his dos and donts are, browse the menus at allears.net to see what is typically on the menus at the restaurants you want to try, and go from there. i'm so excited to have a new neighbor in loserville! good luck with your upcoming surgery, and if you need me, i'm right here!
