I am suffering from intermittent pain in my left chest. After passing gas, the pain subsides but starts again after some time. The pain has been continuing. I have no breathing problem, no vomiting, and no other troubles. I have already taken an ECG, which is normal. Please advise.
This type of chest pain is more likely due to gas or acidity, especially since it eases after passing gas and your ECG is normal. It is usually not serious and can be managed with simple steps: avoid spicy, oily foods and fizzy drinks, eat smaller meals, and use antacids if needed. Keeping a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise, balanced diet, and stress control also helps. If the pain becomes constant, severe, or comes with new symptoms like breathlessness, sweating, or pain spreading to the arm or jaw, seek medical help immediately. If symptoms persist, consult your doctor for further evaluation.
