Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Could The Throbbing In The Chest Be Due To Stress?
HI - i am female , 46 years old. fairly fit and run regularly. i have had no issues with health and my screenings are all clear. I am under a little bit a stress currently due to some personal issues but other than that,. nothing unusual. Recently , i noticed a very mild throb in my chest which has been consistent for the last week. Not really painful but it is there. ( very slightly to the left of the central chest area ). Anything to be concerned about ?
I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. If you are fairly sure that all your screenings regarding your health came normal, then there is nothing to worry. Small small pains do occur across the body at different times. Especially chest and stomach regions. These are mostly due to acidity. I sincerely think that the throbbing pain you noticed could be due to acidity. Acidity pressurizes diaphragm upwards and lungs and heart regions come under pressure. Blood carrying arteries, due to its pulsation, gives you pulsating pain sensation. Control your food intake.
If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this website. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe the needed psychotherapy techniques which should help you cure your condition further.
Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications. Good luck.
