About Chest Pain (the broader symptom)
This summary describes Chest Pain, the broader symptom. Post Surgical Chest Pain is a more specific topic.
Having a pain in your chest can be scary. It does not always mean that you are having a heart attack. There can be many other causes, including:
Other heart problems, such as angina
Panic attacks
Digestive problems, such as heartburn or esophagus disorders
Sore muscles
Lung diseases, such as pneumonia, pleurisy, or pulmonary embolism
Costochondritis - an inflammation of joints in your chest
Some of these problems can be serious. Get immediate medical care if you have chest pain that does not go away, crushing pain or pressure in the chest, or chest pain along with nausea, sweating, dizziness or shortness of breath. Treatment depends on the cause of the pain.
