Upper Part Of Chest Feels Like Having Cold, Collar Bone Pain, Frozen Hands And Arm. History Of Bypass. Suggestions?
I feel rather strange.....the upper part of my chest feels like I have a cold but no coughing & my right collar bone hurts, also my right hand & arm stays ice cold as well as my feet ....I have had a quadruple heart bypass 3 years ago & now have a pacemaker & I use a C- Pap machine at night. My throat hurts but it is not sore....when I take a deep breath the upper part of my chest feels like I have been sucking on a menthal cough drop or I have eaten something realy minty. Should I call my GP or cardiologist?
Hello. Thanks for writing to us. The symptoms that you have described could be due to a mild muscle spasm in the area- due to positional anomaly, a vascular insufficiency or cervical spondylosis. Needs proper investigations to find out the cause. I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you. Regards, Dr. Praveen Tayal , drtayal72@gmail.com
