Suggest Remedy For Chest Pain
I swalled an alcaselser this morning wrong and now everytime I swallow I get a good amount of chest pain, mostly on my right side of my chest. I m not sure if it s stuck, went down the wrong tube, or if just caused very bad irradiation. It s painful. What should I do? Will it just go away?

Thanks for your question on HCM.
As a rule in chest pAin, we must rule out cardiac cause first.
So I advice you to get done ECG first to rule out heart disease.
If this is normal than I think it is most probably painkillers associated gastritis only.
So try to follow these.
1. Avoid hot and spicy food.
2. Avoid large meals, take frequent small meals.
3. Avoid stress and anxiety.
4. Take proton pump inhibitors.
5. Avoid painkiller use as a routine.
6. Go for walk after meals.
