Pain on left side close to heart area. what can it be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Heart,Lung,Stomach?: A person with chest pain must see the doctor to find out why. She should consider going to the E.R. If she cannot reach her doctor. If it turns out to be a heart problem, a collapsed lung, a pneumonia, a blood clot in the lung, bad heartburn, costochondritis (inflammation of the rib joints), etc..., she will still be in the right place at the emergency room.
