A member asked:
Having middle chest pain but dr says he doesnt think its heart related even thought my cta was nconclusive. what else could it be.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Chest pain : A variety of structures may be responsible for chest pain (other than heart) including esophagus, lung and related structures and commonly musculoskeletal, sometimes hard to diagnose. History and physical exam are critical in determining true cause. Would suggest keeping a log for your pain with diurnal variation, activities that change the intensity of the pain, etc looking for a pattern.
