Esophageal spasm: But you want to see your doctor if any other symptom as chest pain / tightness/ discomfort is accompanying such feeling, to rule out any cardiac involvement, although unlikely in your age group unless you have risk factors as overweight, smoking , hypertension, etc.., best wishes

Can dizziness be a symptom of a heart problem/anxiety? I could be feeling dizzy because I havent been drinking enough water, but it could relate to how my chest feels weird at times like theres pressure on it?
