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.

I've noticed something unusual these last couple of months. Whenever I have a drink, even just a little, I end up with pain in both my legs. It's weird because this starts about 23 hours after I drink, usually kicking in right when I'm trying to sleep, and sometimes it even lasts into the next day. Is this something you've heard of before, or should I be concerned enough to see a doctor?

After breast abscess surgery, I noticed a reddish lump under the skin of my right leg below the knee, followed by swelling and ankle pain. The doctor diagnosed it as erythema nodosum and prescribed Predmet 8 twice daily for 3 days, which helped at first swelling and pain went away. But then it came back, so the doctor reduced the dose to Predmet 4 twice daily for 2 days. Now the swelling and pain are worse again. What could be going on and what should I do next?
Erythema nodosum, diagnosed after breast abscess surgery, presents as painful, reddish or purple bumps under the skin, often on the shins, but can appear elsewhere, including the legs. The condition is usually a reaction to an infection or medication and can cause swelling and ankle pain, as experienced. While often resolving on its own within weeks, it's crucial to address any underlying conditions causing the erythema nodosum, as it can be a sign of other health issues.
