Yesterday my husband was fine and then he started getting a dull ache in his chest (not in the center but more on his left side near his armpit). Then it got worse when he would breathe in, move suddenly or raise his arm.
He was in serious pain last night to the point of wanting to cry. His mother (respiratory therapist) came over and his lungs sounded good, heartbeat fine, blood pressure was good. He took advil and the pain went away. Today the pain is back, though not as bad as last night!
He mentioned it to someone he knows, and the guy said once he strained a muscle or something in his chest once and the pain sounded exactly like a broken blood vessel, which was what his friend was diagnosed with. So I am trying to find info about broken blood vessels and so far = nothing.
I just want to find out symptoms of a broken blood vessel, and treatments. Anyone know??

Ok, I have some questions for you: Have you recently had a cold? Where exactly does your chest hurt? Do you notice this discomfort when you take a deep breath? Can you describe the discomfort? Is it a pressure or an ache? Do you feel short of breath, have sweating or nausea also? Sorry for the questions, but I am a nurse, and the ER where I work is a certified chest pain center. Regarding weight loss: Many studies are showing that if you: (1)Exercise vigorously for 20 minutes, 3 times a week (2)Make dietary changes and lose even just 10 pounds: You can significantly reduce your blood pressure. Do you have a family history of high blood pressure and/or heart problems? Hawthorne is a good start but there are several products you might want ot look at: Omega 3 fish oil , CoQ10, Vitamin -C, L-taurine and L- arginine. Some companies have good combinations of these in 'heart health packs'. You might look at Rexall Sundown products which you can buy at almost every drug store ( I used to be a distributor for the parent, direct selling branch). If you feel worse with this chest discomfort, OR it continues you need to go to an ER ASAP Hope you feel better

I broke a vessel in my calf. I was taking an all natural product called Via Viente and nothing else. WHY NOT?
Via addresses inflamation in the body which is obvious in your husbands case, but it also helps the body heal very fast and it also helps any medication work to its optimum and get rid of any toxins that neds and over the counter drugs carry.
To this day since June 2005 my wife and I continue to make Via part of our daily routine and we drink 2-3 ounces 2 times a day.

This spot where it pains, if it is close to centre of 4th and 5th rib, counting from shoulder, there is a good chance that this is angina pain. This is always referred pain, not directly on heart. angina pain comes during evening, when a person is tired after days heavy work. angina muscle starving of oxygen is the reason. If he take ssorbitrate 5 mg and if pain reduces, it is angina pain.
Shoulder, under shoulder blade, armpit, centre of chest, near solar plexus are all possible spots for angina pain to show up!
Some investigation is better done. The author checks for this condition using accu points on heart meridien running from tip of left hand little finger to left shoulder and then to solar plexus.
