Pain in multiple areas

[Danarose]

I have been experiencing pain in multiple areas of my body, right now I feel like there is a blockage at the top of my chest and have mainly been experiencing the on and off pain above and below my left breast, above my left thigh, at the top of my back and in the back of my head. it is not excruciating pain but it is still painful. I have been taking perecetemol which helps for a while but the pain just comes back when it wears off. My mother said there is no need to go to hospital but I think that I should. Does anybody have any advice?

Hi Danarose ,

I'm not sure whether the hospital will be able to offer much assistance and they will probably recommend that you see your GP. Have you discussed your pain with your GP yet?
