Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
I would come up with these possibilities for this pain in the chest ,radiating in the back, these includes.
1 The first possibility is of peptic ulcer disease or hiatus hernia ( heart burn) .Diagnosis can be confirmed by upper G I endoscopy.Reason of this type of pain may be greasy , spicy foods .Tension is also one of the most important cause of heart burn type pain.
2 The 2nd possibility is of pancreatitis as it may cause upper left abdominal pain, which is usually radiating in the back. Diagnosis can be confirmed by examination of serum amylase and lipase enzymes.
3 Chondritis is one of the least possible reason for this type of pain. Diagnosis can be confirmed by physical examination by physician.
In my opinion as all reports are normal , consult a physician and get his opinion regarding above mentioned .
Good luck. Dr. HET
