Depends: It depends on the exact reason for the pain. If it is from coronary artery disease, medications can help or some patients need surgery or an angioplasty. A cardiologist would need to evaluate the situation and decide which treatment will not only help relieve the pain but also prevent you from having a heart attack.Pain from pericarditis for instant would be treated totally differently.

Identify the cause: Once you know the cause, you can begin to relieve it. If the pain is from angina or blocked arteries, drugs such as Nitroglycerin will help. See a doctor if you have heart pain.
