What Causes Chest Pain While Climbing Stairs And Lifting Weights?

Hello,I am 38 yrs. old ang weighs 60 Kg and anaemic. I am having pain in my chest for last few days. It happens only when I am climbing stairs or walking or lifting heavy object. It lasts for 2-3 minutes. Sometimes it spreads on my left shoulder and arm. I went to GP and she said it can be muscle pain but she gave glycerol trinitrate spray and said that i will be referred to the hospital for ECG etc. Later on she called and said that as I am under 40, hospital has not accepted my reference. I used the spray and it helped me. Can angina pain happen at this age?

Respected user, hi I evaluated your query thoroughly.
* Anginal pain can happen at this age .
* But still I consider to be more in relation to Anemia rather than cardiac
origin. It is your body`s low immunity to handle certain level stress due
to low Hemoglobin level .
* Correct your Anemia with proper medicines, high iron containing diet like
green leafy vegetables, cereals , beet root , jaggery etc. & if it is resolved
that means it was not cardiac.
Hope this clears your doubt
Thanks for using Health care magic & giving me an opportunity to assist you.
