Hi, I'm Nurse Rivera. You've been brought into the ER — can you tell me what happened and where you're feeling pain?
I was in a car accident about an hour ago. My chest hurts when I breathe and my left arm feels numb.
Thank you — chest pain with numbness in the arm needs immediate attention. On a scale of one to ten, how would you rate your chest pain right now, and did the numbness start right after the accident or later?
