What Causes Chest Pain After Eating Wheat Bread?
Hi, I am starting to notice that every time I eat whole wheat bread or multigrain bread, within a few minutes I start to experience severe chest pain that lasts for a few minutes. Last night was the worst pain that I have felt. What could be causing this reaction?

Hello
As you stated that whenever ,you eat wheat bread or multi grain bread , you feel intense pain in the chest. This may be due to some allergy to food items or may be due to hyper acidity caused by bread .
The best way is to avoid bread .
Also get in Upper G I endoscopy to rule out any Hiatus hernia or esophageal erosion .
Sometimes esophagitis may produces such pain.
So avoid bread ,if still occurs then consult a doctor .
