Tooth extraction (molar) followed by pain in the left side of my chest.

Chest and lungs

Hi. I got a tooth extraction yesterday at an emergency dental clinic. It went fine it did bleed alot and is very sore still. Around a couple of hours after the extraction I started to experience a sharp pain in my chest which is worse when I take a deep breathe.

I decided to go to bed as i thought I would wake up feeling better. It is now 24 hours after the tooth has been taken out and I still have the sharp pains in my chest.

I dont have any pre existing medical conditions that could possibly link with this. I did google the two of them together and i dont feel sick, dont feel any warmer than usual, I was coughing a little bit last night but nothing today but I would say i am quite a fit person and I am finding normal tasks are making me heavy breathing such as going up stairs or just walking in general.
