Can Salad Of Rocket And Cider Cause Tightness And Pain In Chest?
Hello, I'm a 29 y/o female, and have just eaten a salad of rocket and spinach with ranch dressing, and now I'm having these waves of an extremely tight pained feeling in the center of my chest. The other occasions I think this has happened was when I drank a certain kind of cider. Is it possible that this is an allergic reaction to rocket and cider? I haven't had rocket in this quanitiy before.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
It is possible that it is an allergic reaction to a component in the food.
The use of an antihistamine may help to reduce this reaction , these are available over the counter.
It would be best to avoid it in the future.
I hope this helps
