A member asked:
Ive been having chest pains since sunday. i went to the doctor on tuesday but she said i was okay but today its been so persistent. should i go to h?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Persistent chest discomfort warrants a careful investigation. Go to the hospital emergency room where prompt examination and testing are available. In your age bracket coronary artery disease is unlikely but pericarditis, endocarditis, myocarditis, pneumonia, pleurisy, pulmonary embolism, pneumothorax, esophageal disorders, and even rib cage problems are possibilities.
