Suggest Treatment For Severe Chest Pain And Anxiety Disorder

Hi, I m a bit worried because I have really bad anxiety. I get a bit of chest pain now and then, but sometimes I get these little prickle/ bubble pop sensations in my heart area. They re really scary. My doctor listened to my heart and felt it, and to him it sounded perfectly healthy, blood pressure is also fine. Are these scary prickes due to anxiety? Do I need to go back to the doctor? It seems to get a lot worse when I get anxious, that s Forsure

Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
No need to worry for heart diseases, your current symptoms are due to uncontrolled anxiety only.
So better to consult psychiatrist and get done counselling sessions.
Try to identify stressor in your life and start working on its solution.
You should start anxiolytic drugs too.
Don't worry, you will be alright. Avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
Counselling plays very important role along with drugs to control anxiety.
So consult psychiatrist and discuss all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
