Could Pain In Chest And Numbness In Left Arm Be Heart Related?
Good Evening, I , 34 years old, relatively healthy, not over weight . I am having upper left chest pain. Last night I slept cramped in a corner with both of my sons laying basically on top of me. My left arm has been numb and tingly the majority of the day. I want to make sure it s not heart related. Thoughts? thank you VERY much in advance
You are telling that your symptoms started from the night you slept with your sons, so I think it is not something related to the heart, just something related to the sleeping position.
You can do an ECG just as routine, and if the pain doesn't go away in a few days you may see a doctor.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Anila Skenderi, General & Family Physician
