Hello,
Pain under the left breast radiating to the back often occurs due to
Costochondritis,
chest injury, pleurisy,
pericarditis or developing coronary artery disease. Deep breathing exercises, heat & cold therapy are effective, avoid weight lifting, running or any heavy work. Other causes can be gastritis,
pancreatitis or injury to the spleen.
1. Take antacids, PPI's, Pantoprazol, get physically examined, get lipid function tests, CBC,
Urinalysis, Imaging tests are done to detect the pathology causing it.
2. Avoid a sedentary lifestyle, do regular exercises, stay away from drug abuse & junk food.
3. Stay well hydrated, take adequate rest & avoid stress.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Nupur K, General & Family Physician
