A member asked:
Why would someone's chest hurt when he fasts? (i know he shouldn't be fasting; i want to know what causes it...)
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Chest pain: If only went fasting, this could be reflux, or heartburn. With little food in stomach, one tends to have extra acid production which can cause discomfort in the chest for some people.
