What Causes Intermittent Pain In Chest With History Of Heart Attack?
My son recently was hospitalized with chest pain ( in the upper right quadrant). Tests including stress test were performed. He had a heart attack 2 years ago. Hospital said all heart related tests were negative. The chest pain is not constant. He said it comes and goes. Any suggestions?
Hello. Thanks for writing to HCM. I read and understand your question very well. I try my best to solve it.
As you have intermittent pain in chest with past history of heart attack , there are many cause of this despite of heart attack like chest injury , coughing , acidity , pneumonia , trauma to chest etc. I suggest you to do chest X ray and ECG to rule out the causes. I also suggest you to consult a good physician for this.
I hope my advice will help you a lot. Thanks and Regards. Dr Vijay
