I'm curious and a bit worried because I'm experiencing pain right in the middle of my chest, not in the ribs or on one side. It's just between my chest and it's been bothering me. What could be causing this kind of pain?

Pain in the center of the chest can be due to several factors, including acid reflux, muscle strain, or even stress. It's important to monitor if the pain is associated with other symptoms like shortness of breath or dizziness. If it persists or worsens, it's best to consult a healthcare provider for a thorough evaluation.

I'm a bit concerned about my dad. He had a CABG surgery last week and was discharged from the hospital this Tuesday. It's been three days now, but he's been having this persistent coughing, especially when he talks. It's really affecting his sleep and mood because it hurts where his chest was stitched. Should I be worried about this? Is this something that commonly happens after such operations? What should we possibly do about it?

I'm experiencing some pain in my chest on the right side of my body, especially when I take a deep breath. It's hard to pinpoint the exact spot, but it feels like it's near the upper part of my back. The pain gets intense with certain movements and when I breathe deeply. This happened about a year ago too, and the doctor did an ECG, but everything checked out fine back then. I don't have any other symptoms, and everything else seems normal. Could it be from bad posture while sleeping or sitting, or maybe it's a severe acidity problem? What do you think is causing this?

Patient is advised pulmonary function test(PFT).
