I've been experiencing a constant pain in my chest and the surrounding area. It happens about twice a week or sometimes just once a month. What could be causing this, and should I be concerned about it?

The symptoms you are describing could be related to acid reflux or heartburn. I recommend trying over-the-counter antacids like Tums or Maalox for relief. You can take them as directed on the package insert. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.
