Suggest Treatment For Chest Discomfort/ache/heaviness

I ve been having some chest discomfort. The left side of my chest and arm aches from time to time but recently my upper chest and throat area feels very heavy like the feeling of getting hiccups and something I let out a hiccup or two. Pls let me know if I really need to visit a doctor. Thanks

HI,

With symptoms like you are having you should always rule out underlying cardiac disease. Yes, you should definitely see a doctor and I will advise you to get an ECG and stress Echo done.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
