Right side chest pain with deep breathing.

[jesse3110 9]

Hey all. I was sleeved April 2nd. I had to stay in the hospital extra day because of a low hemoglobin. Anyways I was discharged on Weds night. I discontinued narcotics Thursday (there's a history there) and have been managing with Tylenol. Saturday (yesterday) I felt really great, actually drove around the block to Walgreens. I was all over my incentive spirometer as well, maybe too much? Now when I take a deep breath I get a pain under my right breast. I sent an email to my Dr's service. But would overdoing the spirometer be a potential reason for the pain? I'm afraid to use it more and further injure myself, but know it's crucial to my recovery.

Anyone else ever experience something similar?

I am right now. And it also feels a little similar to heartburn symptoms at times. I had my surgery 3/22.

I called Dr said it is an issue maybe right after surgery with your lungs. Need to use that device they gave for breathing

So I did have some chest pain several days after surgery. I had some Fluid build up around my lungs. Probably due to me not using the spirometer. It took about a week for the pain to subside.

I have decided to go to ER after talking to my doctor. Here now for this reason
