Hi
Most of the time , acidity causes chest pain or heart burns and will respond well to anti acidity treatment.
But heart problems will also cause similar pain.
As your husband has got a high blood pressure , he need to be investigated to rule out heart diseases.
Initial work up include ECG and chest xray.
Consult your doctor
He will assess your husband and will guide you further
Thank you
