I'm really worried because I've been having this right-sided chest pain in the upper part for the last few days. It's been getting worse after I eat, and once in a while, I even feel it in my arms. Do you think this could be a heart-related issue, or could it be something else?

It is important to rule out any heart-related issues, especially given the symptoms of chest pain on the right side that worsens after meals and radiates to the arms. This could potentially be a sign of angina or a heart attack. I recommend seeking immediate medical attention for a proper evaluation and diagnosis. In the meantime, you can take Aspirin 325mg to help with any potential heart-related symptoms.
