Suggest Remedies For Pain In The Sternum Area

Wondering if you can help. I ve had this chest discomfort below my chest and above my stomach. It s there mostly all day for about a week. No other symptoms. I do have high health anxiety but don t know if this could be from that. I do think of it every second of the day and I m going crazy researching heart problems, blood clots, etc. I m 41 years old. Non smoker, don t drink. Thanks

Hello,

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

Your symptoms seem to be related to acid reflux.

I suggest using antacids such as Maalox daily.

I also suggest using Omeprazole 20 mg daily in the morning before breakfast.

I recommend to eat a healthy diet and drink liquids.

Hope my answer was helpful.

If you have further queries feel free to contappct me again.

Kind regards!
