On And Off Warm Sensation For Short Time In Left Side Of Chest Running Down Till Waist. Thoughts?
Occassionally I get a warming sensation on the left side of my chest. It lasts for a few minutes then goes away. It's infrequent in that sometimes it occurs everyday, sometimes multiple times a day and then it may go several days without happening. It feels sort of like someone opened up my chest - just to the left of my left pectoral muscle and poured a cup of warm water in. It runs down my side almost to my waist.

Hi,
From history it seemsthat you might be having Cervical spondilitis produces irritation or pressure on nerves causing this symptoms.
Go for x-ray cervical spine to know exact nature of problem.
Go for EKG to rule out any cardiac ailment as well.
Ok and take care.
