Can a right bundle branch block cause chest pain?
Patient: Hi I was diagnosed with RBBB back in October 14. It was found by my pcp on a ekg. I then had an echo done for further testing. The echo only showed the rbbb, everything else was fine. I still have chest pains at times. I work outside and sometimes my chest will hurt. If tests show only a rbbb, is this pain normal? My pcp says it s nothing to worry about but I just want another opinion on the matter. My biggest concern is that I ll have a heart attack which they say I won t, etc. Doctor: Hello There After going through your medical query I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that RBBB is a conduction pattern which is normal in most of the people you need not to worry about any heart attack. Chest pain can be there with gastritis also or anxiety .Hopefully this information will guide you properly Kind Regards Dr Bhanu Partap
