pneumonia

Avatar n tn But anyway it suddenly disappeared but them came shortness of breath and severe upper back and mid back pain while moving or breathing as well as this im feeling extremly tired and run down and at times dizzy and have loss of appetite.. Any suggestions as to what it could be???
Avatar f tn Why do you worry about pneumonia? I mean, you should have had some other symptoms, like fever. I would just try to get a massage or try some yoga poses for back pain, if it doesn't work then I would take Tylenol, and if it still doesn't work then go to doctor. But try not to worry too much ok?
Avatar f tn Even my back is starting to hurt really bad.
Avatar n tn the pain is anywhere from right below my rib cage to the shoulder blade on my left side back!! Im only 17 and i had went to the dr and i had UTI took all my meds but im still having the problem..I sleep only on my left side so i thought it could be sleeping on it wrong..or just the anxiety that i suffer from..or maybe nerves considering i have been under alot of stress.. I just want answers so i can ease my mindd.
Avatar n tn I would just like to say, ive got this same thing at the moment, and the pain is tight and horrendous, i was given antibiotics for bronchitis, i also have tried steaming, but im very congested and cant break up the phlegm, maybe its the congestion causing this pain .. i just wish the pain would go away.Also my throat is very dry, maybe its a bad bought off flu?
Avatar m tn Also, your lower lobes of the lungs are kind of low on your back and since she has pneumonia that would cause that too. Ask her doctor though to be sure. Poor thing. I have had pneumonia and it is horrible.
Avatar f tn for the last 2 weeks I have had a bad cough and chest and back pain, it is not getting better and there seems to be no cough syrop or medicationt that will work. I keep getting dizzy as well not just while coughing. I really don't want to sit at a clinic to find out I have a bad cold, but I am getting concerned that it may be more then a cold. I have also been getting a fever off and on.
Avatar n tn iam just geting over pneumonia and i have started getting joint pain.
Avatar f tn He now has sharp and constant neck and arm pain. Pain has been going on for two days and is concentrated mostly in the neck, but also on the left side of his forearm; both on his left side. My question, is this a cause for concern? Fever is gone. 31yo/m.
Avatar f tn I was diagnosed with pneumonia 4 days ago when I went in for pain in my heart area and shortness in breath.. I'm on antibiotics, still can't cough anything out but today I started feeling pain in my lower back area where kidneys are. I urinate every 10, 15 minutes and the color in clear.. My mouth is dry all the time which I think is a side effect from the antibiotics. Could have the pneumonia caused issues in my kidneys or bladder???
Avatar n tn But as the pneumonia subsides this should resolve. Ensure to complete your antibiotic course and for the pain you can take OTC Acetaminophen. Take Care. Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
476834 tn?1228398709 I used to get a chest cold every three months. This was back when i was having a lot of back pain, and my left leg was giving me trouble - swelling up and not working very well. It took me a long time to recover from the cold, and then it seemed like I'd get another one right away. I was also having these esophageal spasms at the same time.
Avatar f tn My question is , now i am in Finland along with my husband, will stay till june. now for the past 1 week I have a severe back and arm pain on my right side. But to my knowledge i don't feel any breathing problem. But still the pain persist i tried by applied some pain relief spray thinking it could be a muscular pain. we'll return back to india in two weeks. Is it the same problem which i had previously or something other like gastric and muscular problems.
4250330 tn?1388621179 thank you i went to the doctor and they didnt check anything besides my ears and throat then she said it might just be a virus i am having chest pains and back pain along with arm pain (both) and both legs hurt i am always tired even if i get enough sleep..
Avatar n tn I just got back from my family doctor. She showed me what the ER sent them via fax. The ER doctor stated that the x-rays were inconclusive for pneumonia and nothing else was found. Then I showed her the papers I received from the ER doctor stating I had "Musculo-Skeletal pain" and showed her the two prescriptions the ER doctor prescribed to me. She ordered another set of x-rays.
Avatar m tn I also have anxiety issues. now, I have back pain between the shoulder blades and just under them, and pain in the centre of my chest permiating primarily to the right side of my chest. the pain seems to be where my lung is and deep breaths occasionly hurt. the pain in my chest feels like its in my ribs but its hard to tell, but my back pain feels deep, in my chest. any idea what the cause is? I've had an EKG (not sure if thats right but its the heart test) and its perfect.
Avatar f tn Okay, I have both. I am new to all of this, and my rheumy has been saying my pleurisy is a lupus symptom for months. Now, I just saw her last week, and since I said the Plaquenil hasn;t helped my pleurisy yet, she says it's probably the fibromyalgia causing the pleurisy. I have never heard that as a symptom of fibro...... Is this lady "giving up", "guessing" or "correct"......... And when is pleurisy important? When you have fluid in your lungs?

Avatar n tn t a specific diagnosis of what caused the pneumonia. Most pneumonia is infectious, and is most times caused by strep bacteria, so they throw antibiotics at it, and see how the patient responds, there are more aggressive atypical bacterial pneumonia that may require more aggressive treatment, also a persons age, and strength of their immune system is a major factor as well. But there are also viral, fungal, or less commonly parasitic causes of pneumonia.
Avatar m tn 5 monday but today when i woke up in the morning i feel a pain in my spine and beside at the dorsal level bettween the omoplates it doesnt hurt when i breath , it hurts when i move my neck or when i am in a stand or seated position. do you think is muscular or skeletical or it is related whith the lungs or bronquitis?
Avatar m tn Yesterday after I woke up it seemed to get a lot worse. The pain at first was just in my back and neck, but after yesterday its been radiating down my arms, and has increased 10 fold. Then last night I felt a cold sensation going down my back, neck and even my face, then I noticed my breathing got really shallow. Today, while lying in bed, I could hardly even get up the pain was so excruciating. Could someone please shed some light on what might have happened to me?
1723623 tn?1309547316 What does it mean if my upper back hurts and its difficult to breath? and what can I do about it?
Avatar m tn I know this was a long time ago, but I found your post when searching for "unexplained back pain after pneumonia". What was your resolution? Your description sounds exactly like mine, except that my pain is constant. No change with movement, deep breaths, or activity. I am desperate for an answer. I'm wondering if chest x-ray might have missed pleurisy or pleural effusion. The tech only took 2 x-rays, one with me facing machine, and one at my side.
994239 tn?1321203620 The doctor took an xray and diagnosed me with pneumonia. I was given antibiotics and inhaler and told that I should start coughing up stuff in a couple of days, today is day# 3 I'm not coughing at all but the pain and discomfort with shortness in breath is unbelievable. now I feel like I have a ton of weight on my chest with pain I feel like I'm being chocked, still waiting to start coughing something out... The weird thing is that I get the chills but no high fever.
