Chest pain while breathing can be triggered by various disorders, diseases such as pneumonia and injuries involving the lungs and associated tissues and organs. If experiencing such pain, you should see a doctor immediately for testing and diagnosis as it can be a sign of heart disease or lung cancer.

Treatment

It is critical that you consult your doctor immediately to identify the cause of the chest pain because different causes have different treatments.

- Artery relaxers
- Thrombolytic drugs
- Blood thinners
