What causes chest pain?
Patient: Why does it feel like I m being poked in my chest with needles? I ve been having chest pain for a while and I ve been to the doctor and they said it s nothing but it doesn t go away unless I take some ibuprofen or tylenol or something. I m 13 and I m really worried. What could be wrong? Doctor: Thanks for your question on HCM. In my opinion you should not worry much about this. As it seems muscular pain mostly. And you are improved with pain killers. So try to follow these steps for better symptomatic relief. 1. Avoid heavy weight lifting and strenuous exercise. 2. Avoid bad postures in sleep. 3. Take good painkiller and muscle relaxant. 4. Apply warm water pad on affected site. Another possibility is vitamin b 12 deficiency. So get done vitamin b 12 level and if deficient than start replacement.
