What Is The Cause Of Chest Pain In An Asthmatic Patient?
My chest hurts & it's by the heart area. It's been one or two months. But now its getting worse. It happens every time I yawn, shower with hot water, run, & sometimes before sleep. I used to drink too much soda but I stopped thinking it might be the caused of this. & yes I do have asthma but haven't had an asthma attack since I was a kid. I'm 20 years old by the way.

Hi...there are two main causes for this type of pain...gastritis and heart diseases... your soda favours the first and your age is a little against the second... so try talking cap XXXX 20mg twice daily empty stomach for five days...if no improvement is there get an ecg done...if there is improvement continue for two weeks and then once in morning for next two weeks... stop soda completely...
