What Could Be The Reason For Discomfort In Chest?

hi, ive been having this discomfort on my left chest, upper part of my breast...it comes and go.. and when I have it, it worries me that it might get worse. I have problem with reflux, but this still concerns me that this is something to do with my heart.. ive been to the emergency department about 2 weeks ago when I have pain right in the lower part of my ribs, I had ecg, and a blood test was carried out to make sure I had no heart attack. Can this be a problem with the arteries? I am also waiting for results of ph monitoring and manometry...please help..thank you..

Hello,

It is most likely related to muscle or ligament related issue rather than arteries problem. Local care with analgesic ointment and oral medications of pain relief will help a lot to recover.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
