A member asked:

Sharp pain on left side of chest releived by passing gas sometimes. scary! my doc can't explain it. male 35 yrs. have had for yrs.ty?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Sorry too vague. : There are too many possibilities for left sided chest/abdominal pain to suitably answer this question in the space available and without a clinical exam and laboratory tests. If you remain concerned you should go back to your doctor and ask him to perform a diagnostic work up.
