[Body problem] Lung Pain

Either I am having one HUGE asthma attack, or a tumor is pressing against my lungs, or maybe I bruised a rib. I can't breath unless I am leaning back on a chair, and it feels like my entire bottom ribcage is being stabbed by little needles. It feels like something is punching my lungs towards the front of my chest right now, and I a m having difficulty sitting straight or standing straight. I can't take deep breaths without stopping, or move my upper body without it hurting, it even hurts to move my hands above my head. Any ideas? I really don't think I should go to school...

Go and see a doctor.

And go there before anything else, sounds serious!

K thanks. I kinda figured, since it was nearly impossible to get off the chair or my bed without going "Ow. Ow. Ow...." My [arents aren't up yet, I woke up cause I couldn't breath deep enough...

Well wake them up and tell them it may be an emergency, it sounds preety bad

Yeah...if you're not able to breath you should definitely go the the Emergency Room or an Emergency Clinic near by.That sounds serious Mike.Your parents will be really glad if you wake them up for an emergency.Better than waiting to see what happens right?

I took some motrin, I feel better now. Not completely better, it still hurts...http://www.teengrowth.com/index.cfm?action=info_article&ID_article=1229Mom said it was normal? It's a disease that occurs in adolescents I guess.

I have heard of "growing pains" but i don't know anyone who has had the pains that you are describing, and that site you linked to is stupidly irresponsible to suggest that you shouldn't see a doctor and should just put these pains down as normal.

We all grew up with such phrases as "she died of a broken heart", "the pain pierced his heart", or "if something is bothering you, get it off your chest. " It is no wonder that chest pain scares both adolescents and their parents. Fortunately, the overwhelming majority of cases of chest pain in teens are caused by conditions that carry an excellent outlook for normal health and well-being.

That nonsensical prattling is just so unbelievably stupid, it pretty much merits disregarding all advice in this article.
See a doctor; against your mother's wishes if necessary. If the pains do turn out to be nothing to worry about; then great. If there is something wrong it is best to find out sooner rather than later.

Hm...I still have those kind of pains from time to time. Like my chest will feel really bad on the right-side and I just kinda ignore it because I know it'll go away. :P

Go for help right now before its too late, it can be deadly if you let it sit there. Good luck!

For God's sake,please get yourself to a doctor!
