  1. Hi,
    This seems like pleurisy with pleural effusion it causes that severe dull heaviness and pain,so you need to see a pulmonologist as soon as you can

  2. Hi..
    Thanks for the query..

    Your symptoms can be due to Pleurisy..
    Consult a Pulmonologist and get evaluated by a chest x ray can be done for confirmation..

    Hope this helps..

    Regards.

  3. Hi
    This is pleurisy
    Recurrence rate suggest that you have another underlying condition, it could be,
    Autoimmune disease , lymphoma or pancreatitis ,
    Best way to heal faster is to have an early healthy breakfast (I know it is painful)
    Good luck
