What Causes A Twinge Between The Left Side Of The Chest And Neck?
Weird twinge left side of chest up neck and shoulder. I m a woman, 40 years old, business owner, lots of stress have gained quite a bit of weight since I started the business (in the last 3 years) due to stress. I was in excellent shape prior to starting the business. I live in Arizona, very hot right now. I have been feeling lightheaded & a bit off the last few days. My mother just got over a virus with similar symptoms. But I worry now because of the stress & extra weight. And for the first time in my life my cholesterol levels a little bit elevated. I also have hypothyroid. Thanks!
hi get in touch with a physician,the pain could be due to heart or cervical spondylitis and each shoud be ruled out especially since you are overweight and have high cholesterol.complete lipid profile is required and echo cardiography or EKG if physician thinks so, if neck movements bringing pain, then it is cervical spondylitis.,so consult soon best wishes thanks
