R07.1: Chest pain on breathing
Chest pain on breathing, also known as R07.1 in ICD-10 classification, is a medical condition where a person experiences discomfort or pain in the chest region when inhaling or exhaling. The pain can be of varying intensity and duration, and may differ based on one's position or actions. It is typically the body's response to injury or inflammation affecting the components of the chest, such as the heart, lungs, ribs, muscles, or nerves. Reasons for this condition can range from minor issues, like muscle strain or inflammation, to more serious problems like heart diseases or lung conditions. Common symptoms aside from chest pain include shortness of breath, dizziness, or fatigue. As the underlying causes can be diverse, it's critical to understand the exact source for proper management.
