Hi thanks for contacting HCM...

Noted you have chest pain....
As it is radiating to arm cardiac causes like angina , ischemic heart problem has to be ruled out.....
Investigate with ECG or echo for it....

You are mentioning digestive problem....
So chronic constipation can lead pain...
If it is present treated with laxatives ....
For that more water and fruits taken with active life.....

If congestive symptoms present like tightness , runny nose , phlegm etc then respiratory causes ruled out By chest x ray and spirometry if needed.....
It might reveal bronchitis like condition...

Avoid respi irritants like smoking , fatty and excess spicy food....
Take care....

Keeping this in mind consult physician...
