Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi I m 32 years old and after work today, about 10 hours ago I started having a sharp chest pain that won t go away and get worse if I try to lay down. It hasn t spread to my arms or anywhere else but it s starting to worry me since its 330 am and I can t really sleep. I don t have insurance so I do t want to go to the hospital if I don t have too.
Hi, Seeing the nature of pain you should go for EKG to rule out any coronary insufficiency. Most probably this looks like myalgia. Take ibuprofen, paracetamol combination medicine to get relief. Ok and take care.
