Suggest Treatment For Anxiety And Chest Pain

Hi. I have anxiety but have recently been experiencing chest pain. It is a soreness that does not get better but does not get worse. It feels like a sore muscle. Is this what heart pain feels like? Also, can an anxiety disorder produce tight chest muscles?

Psychiatrist,  's  Response
HI
Thanks for using healthcare magic

I think, you have anxiety disorder and in that case, you need antidepressant like paroxetine. You can also try low dose benzodiazepine like clonazepam on sos basis. These drugs are not available over the counter, so better to consult a psychiatrist for proper management. You can try some relaxation exercise. In case, you need further help, you can ask.

Thanks
