Tightness in chest?

[orangeman]

Ok, I don't know if it's my chest muscles or my lungs but in that area it feels tight when ever I cough or sometimes it just feels sore. Is this a sign that I need a long break for recovery or is this gonna happen forever now?

Hi, sweetie. Good to see you back online. I think your chest tightness is still a part of the classic "I'm sick with something" syndrome that you get, and I'm fairly certain it's caused by anxiety/stress. You know you haven't been feeling all that great moodwise lately. Don't you think that might fit as the right answer?

The other alternatives are that you might have a cold or respiratory infection, which can be aggravated by smoking. Or you could have some asthma, too, you know. Or you might be sore from exercising in some unusual way. You'll have to ask yourself which of those apply, if any.

Glad you're back online. Try and stop worrying about your chest if you can. And if it doesn't go away, go see the doctor. You know I always tell you that and you always don't go. Don't make me get in the car and drive to Flint and take you myself.
