Hello doctor,
I suddenly have pain in my left breast. When I breathe in and out, it doesn't hurt, but touching it lightly, bending over without touching it also hurts. So the doctor asked me suddenly what is the sign of pain in the left chest? I thank you doctor.

Hello,
With the question “Sudden chest pain is a sign of what disease? ", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
You have left chest pain, which only appears when touching the spot (painless breathing) can such symptoms be chest wall pain (muscles, nerves, ... ). However, you will need an electrocardiogram to rule out cardiac causes.
In the immediate future, you can take magnesium B6 2 tablets / day and vitamin E 1 tablet for 10 days, if not, you need to go to the hospital to confirm the diagnosis.
If you still have questions about sudden left chest pain, you can go to a hospital of Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
