I have a weird pain on my left side, sort of a stabbing pain, that occurs maybe twice/three times a day. It sort of feels like my lung is catching on something sharp, and whenever it happens, I find it hard to breathe and I have to take a very deep breath to uncatch it, if you get my meaning. After that its fine and doesn t hurt but it keeps happening. Do you think it s serious? Should I go to my GP?
Hello, As first-line management, you can take analgesics like paracetamol or diclofenac for pain relief.  If symptoms persist, it is better to consult a physician and get evaluated.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
