Chest Pain, Occurs During Swallowing, Coughing, Yawning, Talking A Lot Today. Is This Due To Talking?
Hello and thank you for your time,
Today I had three interviews, which required me to speak more than I typically would in a day. Mid-day, my chest began hurting, especially when I burped, swallowed, coughed, yawned, and even when I breathed deeply. The pain is still present, about six hours since it started.
Could this be related to the fact that I did a lot of talking today? I'm fairly concerned.
Thanks so much,
Brian

DEAR BRIAN,
CAN U TELL ME YOUR AGE?
IT IS QUITE POSSIBLE TO GET PAIN DUE TO UNACCUSTOMED TALKING BUT THE PAIN WILL BE PRESENT ONLY IN YOUR THROAT AND NOT OTHER PLACES.
CHEST PAIN COULD BE DUE TO VARIOUS REASONS ,FIRSTLY IT COULD BE A MUSCLE PULL DUE TO UNACCUSTOMED POSITION,
IT COULD BE ALSO DUE TO GASTRITIS CAUSE U JUST UNDERWENT A STRESSFUL INTERVIEW.
I SUGGEST YOU TO TAKE AN ECG JUST TO RULE OUT ANY HEART PROBLEM .
ALSO YOU MUST HAVE DONE SOME ACTIVITY WHICH MIGHT HAVE GIVEN YOU A MUSCLE CATCH.
PLEASE HAVE SOME ANTACID TO SEE IF YOU GET RELIEF .
YOU CAN ALSO HAVE A MUSCLE RELAXANT TO SEE WHETHER IT IS A MUSCLE PULL.
HOPE I HAVE DONE JUSTICE TO YOUR QUESTION.
TAKE CARE AND RELAX
