What Causes Chest Pain Post Intercourse?
Question: Hi Doctor. I am having chest pain 2.5" NE from my left nipple. My pulse is 82. I took 1 gel cap Advil about 15 min ago. Should I go to a hospital ER??? Thank you. I also have 2 stents from about 10 yrs. Also took 2 low dose Bayer aspirin. I'm sipping water every minute. The pain started after sex with Viagara about 30 mins ago.
Brief Answer:
Need to go to ER
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query
From the history given by you, I strongly suggest that you approach the ER. Chest pain after sex is typical of an acute event.
For now I also suggest
1. do not drive to the hospital yourself
2. avoid climbing stairs
3. Be in supine ( sleeping) position as much as possible
4. continue to take all your previous medications
5. watch out for worsening of chest pain and sweating
I hope I was of help, if you have any further queries please get back
Regards
