What Causes Dull Aches In Chest And Back?
Hi I'm having dull aches in chest and back, started months ago mostly when I would lay down and when this happens it comes and goes. This is starting to happen during the day as well. I was thinking gallbladder. But I will also have a severe dull ache under my jaw towards the side. can that also be a gallbladder symptom? I am a 46 year old female. weight is 130 and height is 5'4

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
No, I don't think it is due to gall bladder.
In my opinion, you should definitely rule out cardiac chest pains.
So get done ecg, 2d echo and stress test.
If all these are normal then no need to worry for heart diseases.
Sometimes women approaching menopause can show similar symptoms due to hormonal imbalance.
So consult gynecologist for this.
Don't worry, you will be alright.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
