What Causes Feeling Of Air Bubbles In Chest?

Hi, I feel like I have air bubbles in my chest... I find relief when I switch positions, but it comes back. I've also felt discomfort in my left arm and I'm feeling very sluggish... I'm 36 years and i'm a little worried it could be my heart. could it? i've checked my pulse and its been normal...

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, we should first rule out cardiac diseases for your symptoms.
So get done ecg, 2d echo and stress test (trade mill test).
If all these are normal then no need to worry for heart diseases.
Sometimes gaseous distention can also gives air bubbles sensations in chest.
So take pantoprazole and levosulperide combination twice daily on empty stomach.
Don't worry, you will be alright.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
