Persistent Chest Discomfort: Possible GERD Symptoms?
Patient's Query
it started a month ago, at night i felt a burning sensation in my chest for about an hour and then followed by back pain and chest pain in the morning. Few days before that i was having a feeling that i was getting choked at night for 3 consecutive days whenever i tried to sleep. I went to the doctor and he said it is possibly GERD and prescribed me medicines but the medicine didnt help and i had this very intense back apin that got into the shoulders and left arm. Then i went again to the doctor and he made me do ecg but results were normal. So he said maybe symptoms of GERD. But now its been month and i still have a constricting feelingin my chest and a sharp needle like pain below the chestbone that comes and goes along with a back pain.
Answered by Dr. Samrat Jankar
Stomach acid flowing back into the esophagus might cause your issue. It's called GERD. GERD brings chest pain, back pain, choking sensations. Sometimes needles-like pain under chestbone too. Eat smaller meals for GERD relief. Avoid spicy foods. Raise bed head while sleeping. If it persists, a gastroenterologist's visit is essential. They'll evaluate further and adjust treatment if needed.
