I have upper chest wall hard swelling to collarbones aches skin hurts

Posted by vicscats @vicscats, Feb 5 6:50am

I have swelling on my upper chest wall almost like breast implants, but it goes clear to my collarbones very hard. I get skin pain that just hurts and achy. It lasted 6 to 7 weeks this last time no fever but you can barely touch myself. It hurts so bad on my skin, but the chest swelling is so weird like someone put a pad of hard on
swelling up across from my nipples up to my color bones.

@vicscats The swelling of your chest sounds puzzling and painful. Have you been diagnosed with an autoimmune disease? What does your doctor say about the swelling? What have they suggested that you could do for comfort? The members of this discussion should find and ask you lots of questions tomorrow.

This sounds very serious and painful. I'm so sorry for you. Have you seen your doctor about it? It would probably a good idea to make a doctor's appointment as soon as you could. Possibly there is some medication that could alleviate the pain and uncomfortableness. A doctor would be aware of the appropriate treatment.
In the meantime, ask God for help. He made you and he can fix you! God and the Doctor can get you well again! I'll say a prayer for you also.
I wish you the best.
