What Causes Discomfort In The Upper Chest On The Left Side?
Hello, my spouse has been having mild to severe discomfort in the upper left chest area. He states that the pain is sudden and it occurs out of no where. Today so far he has had about 10 episodes and is now stating that he feels pressure in his chest area. Please advise.
