Does Masturbation Cause Chest Pains?

About 2 weeks ago, I was shovelling snow and developed chest pains. I went to the emergency room and my EKG/etc were fine. I have reflux and raking/etc has triggered it in the past- it s just never lasted 2 weeks. It could be a severe muscle strain. My question is about masturbation. It seems to make the pain worse. I went a week without doing it, the pain was easing up, so I tried it and- bam it s back. I ve gotten chest pain from masturbating before. What is causing this? If I can t get some release from time to time, I may as well shoot myself!

Hi,

Your words indicate that this chest pain comes every time you are in stress, snow shoveling, masturbation....etc., so you need to do what's called (stress ECG), to exclude heart problem.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
