i removed a black head from the right side of my chest and as soon as i did that i got a chest pain on the left side. It's right in my breast bone but to the left, it hurts when i press on it, and when i lay on both of my sides. it does not hurt when breathe or anything like that i dont think it's my heart, and i don't thing its a breast tumor i don't feel any lumps. It's hurt for 4 weeks now, but not bad but should i go to the doctor? thanks

I would consider that you may have had some infectious process going on in the (?blackhead?) Go to your General Practioner and get it checked out. Happy NewYear!

The blackhead could have actually been the starting of a mole or growth. It's unusual that it would hurt for 4 weeks.
I don't believe it is anything serious, but I am not a doctor.
You should definitely have it checked out, just to be on the safe side.
Look for any discolorings or anything of the sort around the area as well.
It could be something as minute as an ingrown hair.

In medicine, chest pain is a symptom of a number of conditions and is generally considered a medical emergency, unless the patient is a known angina pectoris sufferer and the symptoms are familiar (appearing at exertion and resolving at rest, known as "stable angina"). When the chest pain is not attributed to heart disease, it is termed non-cardiac chest pain.
You have to see the doctor it could be very bad.

You probably just bruised the underlying tissues in removing the blackhead. But by no means should the discomfort last a whole month!! I would definitely consult a doctor to be sure you didn't do more damage than a bruise.

I don't know why a blackhead would have caused pain for 4 weeks though. I would definitely get it check out asap to be on the safe side.

No its nt a problem of heart or breast tumor. It may b due to sme tissue injury. U will b fine in a couple of days.

the black head was not the cause you just did not touch that spot before this time if it hurts rub-it out and if you can`t touch very hard do it really lightly until it stops I do reflexology and that is why people do it because it hurts so good and this is another way to make you feel better hope this makes you feel better
