I've been having this really sharp stabbing pain in my right chest, and it's been going on for a year now. I've had a breast ultrasound, an X-ray, an echo, and an MRI of the ribs, but everything came back normal. What could be causing this pain, and how should I proceed from here? It's starting to worry me.

View allMy mom is 55 and has severe rheumatoid arthritis she's already had knee and hip replacements, and now her shoulder and neck joints are wearing out. Her doctor recommended Humira, but I'm wondering how effective it would be for such an advanced case. Will it give her long-term relief, or are there other treatment options we should consider?
For your mother's advanced rheumatoid arthritis, Humira (a biologic DMARD) can be effective in slowing disease progression and providing pain relief, but it's not a cure. Other treatment options, including other DMARDs and lifestyle adjustments, should also be considered

I'm a bit worried because my ESR is quite high at 34. I'm wondering what this really means. Could it be something serious like cancer? Also, I have lichen planus on my feet, and I'm not sure if it's connected to my ESR levels. Should I be concerned about this?
Raise in ESR signifies active or recent infection,a course of antibiotics with viatmin supplementation would help you,visit Physician for appropriate management

I recently got my blood test results back and my ESR is at 89, which seems really high. I'm a bit worried and trying to figure out what might be causing it. I have a skin allergy right now and am taking anti-allergic tablets for it. Could the high ESR be due to the skin infection or maybe the medication? Would love some insight.
Chronic infection, allergies etc are responsible for raised ESR Not a serious problem
