I've been experiencing chest pain when I move my upper body, and if I press lightly on my chest, it sometimes makes me burp. It's been worrying me a bit, and I'm not sure what could be causing it. Could it be something serious or just something minor? Would love to get your thoughts on what might be happening.

I'm curious about something I've been feeling recently. Whenever I drink water, I can actually feel it moving down through my chest, and there's this cool sensation that accompanies it. Swallowing isn't an issue, but I wanted to know if what I'm experiencing is normal. Can you help me understand this?

I've had this bubbling sensation under my left front rib cage whenever I take a deep breath, and it's been going on for a few days now. It also hurts when I do any kind of physical activity. I'm just wondering if this is something I should be seriously worried about.

The "bubbling" sensation under your left front rib cage, accompanied by pain during physical activity, could be related to various conditions, such as costochondritis (inflammation of the cartilage connecting ribs to the breastbone), pleurisy (inflammation of the lining surrounding the lungs), or even a rib injury, and it's recommended to consult a orthopaedician
