Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
i have had heart burn for a week now. I feel pain on my left side of my chest and I am not sure if I should consult a doctor. Furthermore, i don't know if i am getting a heart attack. can you please tell me what I should do?
Your symptoms seem to be related to heart burn. I recommend using antacids such as Maalox and PPI medication such as Omeprazole daily before breakfast.
I suggest you avoid food which can trigger the symptoms.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
