Does Chest Tightness And Heartburn Signify Stress Or Indigestion?
Hello, Chest tightness may be due to a cardiac problem or non-cardiac problem like an infection of lung or bronchial asthma or allergy or acid reflux etc. Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. Use tablet pantoprazole. Avoid spicy food and alcohol avoid smoking and caffeine drinks. Get it done ECG and chest x-ray then consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu, Internal Medicine Specialist
