I've been having chest pain when I take deep breaths, mostly in the upper part of my chest. I looked it up online, and based on my symptoms, it says surgery might be needed. Could this be GERD or something else?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Chest pain, especially when taking deep breaths, can have several causes, including GERD, lung conditions, heart problems, and even anxiety. While GERD is a possibility, it's important to rule out other conditions like pneumonia or pulmonary embolism, as they can also cause chest pain with deep breathing. It's crucial to seek medical advice to determine the specific cause of your chest pain and receive appropriate treatment

View allI'm a 19-year-old guy and I've been having these sudden sharp pains in my left arm. There's also this weird sensation in my left chest area and sometimes my stomach hurts. Occasionally, I feel a bit short of breath. I'm not sure what's going on and I'm kinda worried about it. What do you think I should do?
It is important to seek immediate medical attention as these symptoms could be indicative of a heart-related issue. In the meantime, you can take Aspirin 325mg to help reduce the risk of a heart attack. Please chew the tablet for faster absorption.

Consult with a healthcare provider to assess your symptoms, and consider stopping the supplement temporarily to see if the chest pain or hair thinning improves. If necessary, they can recommend a different course of action, including alternative supplements or tests.
