My mom keeps mentioning that she's experiencing chest and back pain off and on. I'm getting a bit worried about what might be causing this. Could there be any specific reasons for these symptoms that we should look into?
Chest pain and back pain can be caused by a variety of reasons. Some common causes include musculoskeletal issues, such as muscle strain or inflammation. However, more serious conditions like heart problems (such as angina or a heart attack), lung issues (such as pneumonia or a pulmonary embolism), or gastrointestinal problems (such as acid reflux or gallbladder issues) could also be the cause. It is important to consult a doctor for proper evaluation and diagnosis.

I'm getting these episodes of chest pain and heaviness on my left side that go down to my shoulder and arm, and they last a really long time, like more than a day. They happen randomly without any exertion, and it's scary. I had an ECG during a panic attack, and it showed a heart rate of 130 bpm with sinus tachycardia, but I was discharged after 12 hours. Another time, I felt that chest heaviness with a burning sensation again, and the echocardiography came out normal. The doctor said there's nothing to worry about cardiac-wise, but the anxiety and fear are hard to shake off. Should I consider a stress test or something, even though my ECG was normal at that rate?
