What Causes Sore Throat With Chest Pain Post A Flu Incidence?

Hi i am 29 years old (168lbs ,5 8)and i have a sore throat along with chest pain. bear in mind i had just healed from flu. but 2 days later, this happens. There was some initial discomfort in the stomach and i had a spicy meal the day before but this normally doesn't happen.Currently, being active is taxing. I tend to have sore throats 1 to 4 times a year. Is this a reinfection or something else. I dont smoke

dear user

these symptoms you have may be due to throat infection with bacteria or virus infection.......feeling of these symptoms should not make you stressed as it is common problem with common cold or bacterial infection of your throat or tonsils ........ypu may also have gastroesophageal reflux and reflux is harmful to throat and lead to irritation of the throat and cause chest pain sensation you have
also pain is increased with stress and anxiety and spicy foods because these will get symptoms
common cause also is drinking coffee or tea and alcoholic drinks and smoking as it cause more irritation of throat and chest pain
simply you shouldnot worry of that and just monitor your food style and gargle throat with saline for decontamination

wish you healthy life
