Frequent Loose Motions, Pressure In Chest Area, Chest Tightness. Cause?
I am a 22years old female.
For past one week I have been going on loose motion atleast for twice or thrice in a day.
Also from yesterday I am sufferring from a kind of ache or pressure in d chest region, especially on left side. Cant say its from rib cage or from breast, but it leads until lungs sometimes with ache.
Couldn't turn over mt left side and sleep because of this pain.
I feel hard over the chest areas, like something is been holding the rib cage and chest, so tight.
Im much worried thinking what would this be exactly and can't share it to anyone else at home too.
Kindly help.

Hello,
Thanks for posting on HCM,
From your description you are suffering from acute diarrhea which maybe due to infection (gastroenteritis) or another cause such as IBS, intolerance etc.
Pressure on the chest could be coming from your heart or from your gut. You could be suffering from a mild form of angina pectoris (coronary artery diseases) or suffering from gastritis or dyspepsia.
You will need to consult with your primary care doctor who can evaluate you, request some laboratory exams and maybe provide you with an appropriate treatment for both your diarrhea and chest thightness.
Hope that this helps
