A member asked:

Why do i have chest pains after drinking red bull and do i need to go to the er?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. James Long answered

Red bull: Stop the red bull. Many things could be causing the chest pain and it needs to be evaluated by a doctor but you have made a diagnosis. Stop the inciting problem.
