Why does my chest hurt/feel tight after a meal? i'm fine at other times. i am not taking any medication.

Chest pain: associated with food intake may be associated with gastresophageal reflux which is commonly known as heartburn. Identify and avoid foods that cause this feeling. Sometimes antihistaminic or proton pump inhibitor medications provided relief.
