Hi everyone,

I’m fairly new here but I want to see if anyone has had similar symptoms. I am going to make an appointment with my doctor, but I’m just curious.

I have been having on and off front right lower rib pain for the past few weeks. On top of that today I feel like my breathing is really weird like I can’t take a deep breath and that I feel like I’m going to cough although it it just a dry cough. I am freaking out over lung problems. I have curved finger nails which I’ve had my whole life but I read that this can be a sign of lung disease. I also have some read spots on the back of my throat which I feel like is contributing. I am have random pains on my arms (shoulders and forearms), which I also know can be a symptom of lung issues.

Today I flared up, but I’ve been running about 20 miles a week and haven’t noticed any issues. If I had a lung issue, would I be able to run that much?
