I've been experiencing some chest pain for the past few days. It moves around - sometimes on the left side, other times on the right. I'm not sure if it's muscular pain or something related to my chest rib cage. I dont have any issues with breathing and there's no cough either. I've tried deep breathing to see if there's any discomfort, but it doesnt hurt when I do that. I had a chest X-ray just last month and everything looked fine. I do have a deficiency in Vitamin D and B12. Could this be related? What's your take on this?

I'm a bit of a hypochondriac and I've got a worry I can't shake. I tend to poke and press my lymph nodes pretty often, like maybe 10 to 15 times a day. Could doing this make them swell up or harm them? I know I'm checking them a lot, practically every hour, but I'm just really concerned. Is this something I should be worried about?

Yes, do not unnecessary press the lymph nodes. They are the organs which filter the infections from the body. These infection causing organisms will be stored in a dormant form in the lymph nodes so pressing it unnecessary is not a good thing. Secondly, examining oneself 10-15 times is alarming, it can be OCD with hypochrondria which requires medications.
