Suggest Treatment For Pain In Collar Bone With Increased Heart Rate
Kind of freaking out...severe pain in my left collar bone...Have not done any strenuous activity...just had bout with the pneumonia and all....thinking I may not be quite over it...Even thought I was having a heart attack...BP is normal but heart rate is 126+...Totally freaking out right now...
Left collarbone area pain could be due to muscular spasm but with high heart rate, angina pain (cardiac pain) has to be ruled out. To rule out this, EKG is advisable, it can only differentiate the condition. If the EKG is unremarkable then there is nothing to worry.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
