What Causes Burning Sensation In The Upper Chest And Back?

Following advice
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you for asking!
I read your query and understood your concerns.
What your mother is experiencing may be related to the following causes:
- Cardiac issues
- Gastrointestinal and gallbladder/pancreas issues
- Costochondritis
- Anxiety
If she was my patient I would recommend to do the following examinations to find out what is causing her symptoms:
- Blood work
- Ecg
- Cardiac echo
- Abdominal ultrasound
- Chest x-ray
Can you please upload the results of the examinations she had done at the hospital to help you further with my advice?
Only if all above mentioned exams were negative than her symptoms are related to anxiety.
Wish you and your family health!
Dr. Shehu
