Could The Chest Pain And Cough Be Due To Infection?

About 5 times in the last month I have had chest pains that last from 20 min to 10 min. There is also a sensation in my throat. I did have a bad cough when the first pains came but I don t have a cough now and I ve had a couple of episodes. I was woken up with pains at 5 am. Would it be some kind of infection?

hello

Chest pain like this are unlikely to be due to infection and maybe due to a condition affecting the heart called as angina, This is very risky and i would like you to meet your cardiologist for examination and further advice as soon as possible.
Thanks
