I am 15 and just last week I was
accidently thrown into a wall. The upper
right part of my back hit the wall first
with an amazing pain that rushed after it.
There is no bruising that I can see but I
can not take deep breaths or regularly
take breaths for the pain is to severe. I
take short breaths and my right lung does
not appear to inflate like my left lung
does. It constantly has a burning feeling
but I can be at most ease when I am not
laying down or leaning over in any form.
I have these coughing spells that occur
infrequently that I cough and cough but I
can not bring air back into my body. When
I have finished coughing I feel like there
is not enough air in my body and my pulse
quickly increases. I begin to breathe
heavily and I struggle to bring in air.
The last time I had one of these I passed
out due to not being able to breathe. My
friend suggested that I have a bruised
lung but I do not know anything about
them. Suggestions or comments?

dear toby21,
you might get better results if you post
your question in the lung cancer, lung
disorders forum. It seems most
appropriate there. Please feel free to
create another post there and see how it
goes! Or you can ask our doctor and get
a personalized response in just days.
