Hi, Thanks for using HCM.
Any chest pain, need to rule out cardiac problem, Get ECG done.
Your pain goes in more favor of gastritis pain.
avoid spicy food
Take tab. pantoprazole 40mg morning in empty stomach for 5 days.
you can take antacid to reduce pain.
Consult your doctor for examination and management.
