What Causes The Sudden Jerk And Sharp Pain In The Chest Plate During Sleep?
Just when I am falling asleep I get a sudden jerk and am awaken with a sharpe pain on my chest plate. The sudden jerks pains were in various parts of my body like a foot, calf, right wrist, shoulder but now seem to be just in my chest plate. The pain was kind of like an electrical shock but now they are sharpe pains and won't let me sleep.
Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic. I can understand your concern. Sudden onset sharp chest pain in night is mostly seen with heart diseases. So first get done ecg and 2d echo to rule out heart diseases. If all these are normal then no need to worry for major heart diseases. Vitamin B12 deficiency can also cause such electric shock like sharp chest pain in body. So get done vitamin B12 level and if deficiency then you should start supplements. Don't worry, you will be alright. But first rule out heart diseases. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
