What Is The Treatment For Severe Chest Pain?

I'm a 16 year old female. I'm not in the best shape, so lately I've been trying to exercise and eat healthy. I know cardio is how to lose weight and running tones you up, so I tried running on my treadmill. Shortly into my jog (about 3 minutes) I started to get severe chest pains, a bunring sensation almost. I walked for a minute or so, then started to jog again, but 30 seconds into jogging again, the pain was back and worse to the point where I had to stop, sit down, and catch my breath for about 5 minutes. Is this something serious?

Hello,

These are exertion induced chest pain reasons for which vary as:
• Low hemoglobin (anemia)
• General debility (deficiency of proteins, vitamins, minerals, trace elements, carbohydrates, etc.)
• Obesity
• Decreased respiratory drive (lung conditions as pneumonia, effusion, tuberculosis, obstructive disorders, pulmonary hypertension, tumors, and others)
• Cardiac issues (cardiomyopathy, valvular heart diseases, and others)

Your case needs thorough clinical examination, extensive evaluations in form of laboratory, radiology parameters to conclude the diagnosis and management accordingly.

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

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
