Chest pinch?

Question

Chest pain that compresses with pinching Hello, For about a month. I have not done any particular activity, it often happens in the evening before going to sleep. I feel a pain in the front ribs and in the back on the sides and a feeling of lack of air when it happens. It gets better when I drink water. I wanted to go to the medcib but really hard to get an appointment

Good morning, ma'am, When did you first notice this? Does it coincide with a particular activity? Do you have any other symptoms such as pain, dizziness, numbness or other? Have you tried anything for this problem? Thanks for the feedback! At first glance, I think we should try to find a possible cause. What I suggest for the next 4 to 6 weeks is to keep a journal where you will write down everything you consume as well as the quantities, but also the activities you undertake, and your state of mind (fatigue, stress, etc.). In the second column you could write down the occurrence and extent of the symptoms. We could then identify some possible causes. This may take several weeks so I suggest being diligent. If no cause can be suggested, I suggest consulting a physician in order to benefit from a thorough evaluation of the situation. The RV Santé Qc platform can be tried to get an appointment, if necessary. I hope I have been helpful and remain available if you have any further questions! Sincerely, Tom Samaha, pharmacist
