Is Earache, Severe Jaw Pain And Pain In Shoulder Related To Heart Problems?

I have had an earache, severe jaw pain and pain in my right shoulder that comes and goes for the past month. Should I be concerned that these are symptoms of heart problems? On a side note, my mother and uncle both passed from sudden death related to heart problems.

Hi. Welcome to HCM forum. Please do mention your age whenever u have health related query. If u are middle age and above u should be concerned about this pain. Diabetes and hypertension are also known risk factors for heart problems and if u have these also u should be more worried.. Angina pain (means heart related pain) may present as Chest pain or discomfort, Pain in your arms, neck, jaw, shoulder or back accompanying chest pain, Nausea, Fatigue, Shortness of breath, Sweating. I suggest u to consult a doctor as soon as possible and get a ECG done which reveals any heart problems. Regards.
