Suggest Remedy For Heart Throbbing Pain In Chest

My daughter s chest hurts it feels like a throbbing pain in her left side. She says its kind of hard to breathe too and having trouble breathing. Her palms are also sweating. It is still hurting , the pain is like a sharp pain closer to the side rather then the middle. Just 10-15 minutes ago she was drinking soda (crush). Could it be because of that or something else?

Thanks for your question on HCM.
I can understand your daughter 's situation and problem.
In my opinion, we should first rule out cardiac cause for her left sided chest pain.
So get done ecg, if ecg is normal then no need to worry for cardiac cause.
She might be having stress related gastritis which is worsened by soda.
Sweating in Palm also suggest stress and anxiety.
So ask her to avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
She may need anxiolytic drugs too.
For gastritis, proton pump inhibitors are good drug.
Don't worry, she will be alright.
