A member asked:
After a period of high stress, experienced a persistent ache below left collarbone. it eased after an hour or so. is this a heart issue?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: Definitely hard to say without more detail. Women can characteristically have atypical symptoms when they have cardiac ischemia including left shoulder and chest pain. I would not hesitate to be checked and possibly have a stress test.
