A member asked:

All possible causes of squeezing chest pain in center? can exercise just fine but unexplained squeezing pain at rest that lasts 5-8 seconds

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Heartburn: The joining point of your swallow tube to the stomach is located just in back of the heart & slightly left of the center of your chest. Brief squeezing pain would be likely if you have a little back wash/leaking of stomach acid while the stomach squeezes your meal. Antacid tablets could provide some rapid relief.
