I can't breathe...
I was involved in a car accident three weeks ago today. I walked away with just whiplash (and hit my chest on the steering wheel). My back has hurt badly for the last two weeks (at the top between my shoulder blades), I've never had a problem with my back previously and now it's too painful to even look over my shoulder.
On Friday evening, it started to feel like the pain from my back was spreading into the right side of my chest. It was so painful to breathe I ended up at A&E (not the best night for it!!). I was given a chest X-ray as the doctor suspected I had a collapsed lung, but everything looked normal. He said that maybe it's delayed internal bruising, but surely not three weeks later?
Does anyone have any ideas as I'm still struggling for breath. I can actually breathe but it's agony to take a proper breath.
Thanks everyone in advance. x
