Is Chest And Shoulder Pain Due To Stress?
My husband who is thirty five years old had some pain on the left side under the chest along with some pain on the left shoulder.we went to a nearby clinic and the report says consider inferior myocardial damage.he doesn t smoke not drink and he doesn t have difficulty in breathing as well. Can it be because of stress. Is it a serious issue

hello user, i understand your concern. you have not mentioned - what tests were done at the clinic - however if a ecg has shown so then its a serious issue - and then you should consult with a cardiologist - smoking and drinking can cause and aggrevate the cardiac problems but there absence does not rule out the disease - so opinion from specialist should not be delayed . Hope it helps - thank you
