What Causes Pressure In Sternum Area?
In 2009 I had a CABG procedure done. The last day or so I have been feeling an uncomfortable pressure just above my sternum area. Not radiating to either side. Should I be concerned? sorry I didnt know this was going to cost me anything. Cannot afford it.

hi
pressure and burning sternal area are more common after CABG,caused usually due to the sternal incision.
if it is a new finding since 2 days it is better to get evaluated, at least for an ecg
please continue the medications regularly.
take care
