What Causes Chest And Stomach Tightness While Taking A Shower?
I have tightness in my stomach chest area when I take a shower and lessens when I’m out , also my hands and finger tips have been cold and feel like they are pinched when they warm up. I also have been sweating pretty bad at night- I went to the doctors blood work was great, got an ekg today just waiting for them to send the results. It’s been going on for a little over two weeks now.
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Check EKG result for rule out any cardiac cause if present. Second check your serum TSH estimation to rule out thyroid problem. Rule out Hypocalcemia by serum free ionized calcium estimation. According to cause specific treatment will be given. Investigate with these reports for primary work up.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
