Brief Answer:
Try Ranitidine or Omeprazole!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this bad chest. Do you mean you have chest pains? If this is what you are referring to, then you may have gastritis or acid reflux disease. I will suggest that you take Ranitidine or Omeprazole to reduce acidity. If this fails to help within 12hours, then seek further consultation and examination. Please, let me know whether you have got any fever or not as this can greatly change the thinking process and possible diagnosis.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. Above all, thanks for using our services.
