Q or the past year now, I have been getting sharp chest pains. Sometimes it feels like I am about to have a heart attack. I find it painful to breathe for the couple of seconds that it happens. The sharp pains occur mostly in the lung/heart area. However, I have also felt them in the lower chest area as well. I dont know what is causing this.
The chest pain can be due to heart problems, lung problems or gastric problems. It is important to find out the cause to get the best possible treatment. You must consult a physician and get the tests done, required to rule out the possibilities related to heart pathology.
