What Causes A Dull Pain In The Chest With A Bad Taste In The Mouth?
I've been having a very dull achey pain in my left to middle chest area for a little while. It seems a little more constant today than previous days. It isn't really painful, on the scale of 1 to 10 - probably a 1 at the most a 2. No other symptoms - except a couple of time in the past few days I had a bad taste in my mouth. Any ideas of what it could be?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
More or less it seems to be a pain due to the heart burning and it is due to more acid secretion. Still, it needs to be ruled out for cardiac disease, so it is better to get done the cardiac evaluation test and till then you can try tab Omeprazole. Try to have this medicine at evening time.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
