What Causes Chest Pain And Soreness In The Forearm?
I am 21 and I ve smoked a pack a week when I was 19 (and this lasted for a year). Now I smoke on and off probably 5 cigarettes a month (socially). But I have been experiencing heart aches, chest pain and sore left forearm after I smoke. My dad is and has been a chain smoker for over 20 years. Is it normal for someone who hasn t smoked for that long to experience this?

I would like to advise you to stop smoking as you may be at severe risk of cardiovascular diseases. Have an ecg done on an urgent basis along with your cardiac risk profile on blood tests. Send me the reports so that I can suggest you further, Thank you, Dr. Ashish
