Suggest treatment for pain in chest
Patient: i am a hypertension patient, but may be due to heavy exercise done previously like lifting of weights while lying down, i am getting pain in chest specially during winter months. I have done all tests of heart like angiography,doppler test,TMT test and all test related to heart and that also from good hospitals in india ,like FORTIS moali (punjab) and Alchemist (panchkula). Please do the needful for advising me and prescribing me suitable medicins. Doctor: Hi,  Chest pain can be because of a variety of causes, the most important being due to heart for which you have already been evaluated thoroughly.  The pain which occurs periodically is generally not Cardiac especially with the type of history you are telling. It looks most likely the pain due to muscle pull or some ligament injury.  The treatment is with basic pain killers with muscle relaxant combination (like Tab Diclovis MR/Tab Myoril). You should also not do heavy exercise so at least 6months.   I will advise you to consult an orthopaedic Doctor who will tell you the proper tests to be done and do'es and don'ts for the same.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.  Take care  Regards, Dr Sameer Maheshwari, Cardiologist
