Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, we should rule out cardiac pain first. Because left sided
chest pain with
arm pain is characteristic of cardiac pain.
So better to get done ecg first.
If ecg is normal then no need to worry for cardiac disease.
Your chest pain is mostly due to GERD (
gastroesophageal reflux disease).
It causes burning
epigastric pain and gaseous distention of Stomach.
So follow these steps for better symptomatic relief.
1. Avoid stress and tension.
2. Avoid hot and spicy food. Avoid large meals, instead take frequent small meals.
3. Start
proton pump inhibitors and prokinetic drugs for gas.
4. Go for walk after meals. Keep 2-3 pillows under head in the bed to prevent reflux.
5. Avoid smoking and alcohol if you are having these habits. Also loose weight, if you are obese.
Don't worry, you will be alright.
Wish you good health. Thanks.
