Does Excess Weight Cause Deep Pain In Chest?

when i lean or bend over I get an uncomfortable deep pain in center chest. I have been to gp, who was not interested. I have had a recent ecg it was normal I am 47 women doesnt smoke but is over weight. Could it be the excess weight in my abdomen, pushing upwards when I lean forward?

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
As you describe, it appears to be the pain due to the gastric irritation, hiatal hernia,phlegm in the chest, eosinofelia, or cardiac problem.
I advise you to consult a physician for diagnosis and treatment .
You may need to have an X ray chest, recent E.C.G. and other tests for diagnosis and treatment .
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms omeprazole, domperidone, and antacid gel till the diagnosis is established.
Avoid taking spices, junk foods, and oily foods.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
