Yesterday, I started my rep by doing bench press at 155lb. Accidentally, I bounced the bar off my chest a few time and now I have chest pain. I do feel a bit of a sharp pain on the center right side of my chest but more intense when I cough or sneeze…. PLEASE HELP!
no, this is not common.
maybe you should see a doctor about this pain in your chest, if it persists, as it may be serious.
but it may just be an injury because you’ve bounced the bar off of your chest a few times.

I woke up yesterday with a dull chest pain on the right side under my breast, it is about 1cm above the breast bone. I thought maybe i slept badly but the pain came back later several times, lasted for a few seconds each time. And again today it has been on and off. It doesn’t really hurt, it is just a dull pain but it worries me. What could cause this type of pain? Could it be a cyst in my breast? Liver problem? Lung problem? I am 39, don’t smoke, and not overweight. Thanks!
I am a nursing student. I recently studied the causes of pain in the thoracic region (chest). If the pain is on the right side it is not your heart and could most likely be gallstones because that is where your gall bladder is located. You should probably get it checked out just to see.

Having done nearly 50,000 brain scans, psychiatrist Daniel Amen, MD notes that depression and other psychiatric problems are not a single or simple disorder. He notes that…
“Giving someone the diagnosis of depression is exactly like giving them the diagnosis of chest pain.
Why don’t doctors give people the diagnosis of chest pain?
Because chest pain is a symptom with many different causes.”
What can cause chest pain? Heart attacks, ulcers, gas, muscle pain, and grief.
Doctors don’t typically give people the diagnosis of chest pain because it doesn’t tell them what causes it or what to do for it.
The same thing is true for depression.
It is a symptom with many different causes.
And one treatment does not fit everyone.”

Over a week ago I came down with bronchitis. Went to the doctor and got an antibiotic and cough medicine. Cough diminished 3 days ago and I rarely cough now, but I constantly have chest pain – feels like I’m carrying weights on my chest.
I’m also asthmatic and have been keeping up with my daily med’s (Advair, Singulair, Spiriva and Albuterol).
Went back to the doctor yesterday because I feel worse: aches, trouble breathing and massive chest pain. She said she still heard wheezing and she gave me Methylprednisolone.
Has anyone ever experienced this before with bronchitis? How long will it take until the chest pain goes away?
Have been there many times. I can take up to 8 weeks if the bronchitis was bad. Sounds like it is. Everyone is different. You are doing the right thing by keeping your doctor informed. Remember to drink plenty of water with the Methylprednisolone.
Will help greatly. Good luck, hope you feel better soon. REST!!

Migraine headaches do not just drop out of the sky on some poor person. If you are suffering from migraine headaches, there are probably physical causes behind your condition, and there are steps you can take tavoid the frequent recurrence of the headaches. Some of the food that you are eating may in fact be the “trigger” that sets off your migraine attack, and it is helpful to know which common foods are known to start migraine headaches.
Before I go into a discussion about the kinds of foods that often cause migraine headaches, it is important to understand that food alone is not the only factor associated with migraine attacks. Other contributors include stress, hormones, emotional factors and even some medications. In addition, some foods that trigger migraines in one person, may not affect another person. That said let’s take a look at the commonest kinds of food associated with the onset of migraine attacks.
The foods which can cause difficulty include the following:
peanuts and peanut butter
caffeine in all products, not just coffee
dairy products
yeast
some beans (which includes peanut), as well as broad, lima , Italian, lentil, soy, peas
avocados
dried meats
sauerkraut
pickled herrings
canned soups and packet soup mixes
chicken livers
ripe banana
soy products as well as the bean itself
sodium nitrate, which is used to preserve hot dogs, bacon and cured meats
the preservative benzoic acid and its associated compounds
MSG, common name for monosodium glutamate, a flavor enhancer which is now in almost universal use in almost all processed foods
nuts
sourdough breads
cheeses which have been aged
red wines, beer, champagne, vermouth
chocolate
anchovies
If the list above seems depressingly long, the good news is that most of the items in this list come from highly processed and manufactured food products. These foods aren’t too difficult to identify, test, and eliminate from your diet. You just have to pay attention when shopping, when preparing food and when sitting down to eat your meal.
Hold the Cheese Please!
If you are a cheese lover, and you also are susceptible to migraines, then you have to pay attention to what kinds of cheese you eat. Aged cheeses are high in tyramine, a substance that forms during the breakdown of protein. The longer cheese ages, the greater the tyramine content becomes. If you sensitive to tyramine then these are the cheeses that you should avoid:
Blue cheeses
Brie
Cheddar
Stilton
Feta
Gorgonzola
Mozzarella
Muenster
Parmesan
Swiss
Processed cheese
Cheese is not the only food that has high tyramine levels. Other foods high in tyramine include processed meats, pickles, onions, olives, certain types of beans, raisins, nuts, avocados, canned soups, and red wine.
Doctors concede it can be difficult to avoid all of these foods. Nestor Galvez-Jimenez, MD, a neurologist with The Cleveland Clinic in Florida, says some of his tyramine-sensitive patients find it difficult to avoid foods that are on the “stop list,” especially wine. “They want to drink wine even if they know it will give them a headache. In that case, I recommend a preventive dose of medication before dinner.” He adds that patients should discuss this idea with their doctors before trying it.
Avoid Additives
Whenever you buy processed foods it is important to read the labels carefully because several food additives, such as nitrites, food colorings and artificial sweeteners, are also common headache triggers. Doctors are not 100% sure why these additives can trigger migraines but suspect that they increase the flow of blood to the brain and bring about changes in blood vessels.
Unlike other migraines which are triggered by a food substance and are felt on one side of the head, headaches induced by additives or other substances are usually sensed on both sides of the head. In addition, additive-triggered migraines usually occur within a specific time after taking the additive and they disappear when the additive is eliminated or within a specific time thereafter.
Monosodium glutamate-induced headaches, sometimes known as Chinese restaurant syndrome, occur within an hour after ingestion of MSG and can cause at least two of the following symptoms:
Pressure in the chest or face
Burning sensation in the chest, neck, or shoulders
Dizziness
Abdominal discomfort
MSG is not only found in Chinese food but is used as a flavor enhancer in a wide variety of snacks and other manufactured foods, so once again it is important to read the labels carefully when shopping for your household groceries or even when grabbing a quick snack.
As I mentioned in the beginning, the ingestion of specific foods is not the only cause of migraine attacks, and the foods that trigger these attacks vary from person to person. However, if you are suffering from frequent migraine headaches then it makes sense to consult your physician and to do your best to eliminate the foods that may be contributing to your discomfort.

I’ve had speed before many times, but about 10 hours (thought the hit had ended) after i had eaten it my heart rate increased dramatically (very randomly) my chest started to become tight, breathing become more erractic and since then i’ve got chest pain when i breathe in. its the left side of the chest, near the heart. (had it for 1 day now, not severe pain but enough to cause a discomfort). I’ve never experienced it before and I didn’t smoke it, i ate it.
ANY IDEA’S AS TO WHAT IT IS, OR IF IT COULD BE PERMENANT?
THANKSSSS!!
Amphetamines can speed up your heart rate and, at least, exacerbate pre-existing heart conditions. You should seek medical attention immediately. Hopefully you come through this and will never touch drugs again!
