Could The Periodic Pain In The Left Breast Be Due To A Problem In Heart?
I have a pain under my left breast periodically. I had a chest x ray and nothing showed up. The doctor gave me some topical cream, but I am worried it s something else going on. I have had it the past 4 months off and on. Is there any possibility it could be related to my heart? Sometimes it feels like it flutters.

Dear friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic
Your description does not suggest heart pain…
May be you are having missed beats?
EKG / HOLTER (24 to 48 hour ambulatory monitoring) / ECHOcardiogram / TMT (Treadmill exercise ECG) / LABORATORY work-up – may all be necessary for further assessment, assistance and assurance.
The treating doctor alone can suggest further based on his assessment of the situation.
Take care
Wishing all well
God bless
