What Causes Prickling Sensation In Chest And Body Pain?
Question: Theres pricking pain in the chest als an upset stomach,feel like vomiting and body pain
Brief Answer:
Antacids, antibiotics will help. ECG to rule out heart illness doubts.
Detailed Answer:
HI!
Chest pain during an upset stomach points out more to the effects of excess acid secretion than it does to heart disease. This is best taken care of using palliatives like pantoprazole and domperidone combination tablets. You can take a combination of aluminium hydroxide salts with lignocaine also to stop the effects of stomach pain. You need to get the infection treated if your other doctor speaks of food poisoning. I would suggest a stool test and an antibiotic sensitivity test to find out the best drug to cure the infection. This can be done at a standard path lab. You need to see your doctor again for a prescription for the antibiotics. However, for immediate relief, you don't need a prescription to get the antacids drugs, above mentioned.
If you still have doubts, you can get an ECG done. It's quick, easy and painless. It will clear any issues about whether the chest pain is secondary to heart illness.
Thanks,
