What Causes Feeling Something In Neck And Chest Pain?
There s a spongy feeling in my chest to my collarbones into my neck into the back of my head not into my skull or boobs or arms but it does go to my shoulders when I press on it it sounds weird like scrunching a plastic bag my neck is a little swollen and I have a lot of chest pain but I have no idea what s going on or if it s serious or if I should just wait for it to go away
hello.. i would like to know your age,smoking history,any drug or alcohol addictions,diabetes/hypertension history, breathing difficulty?..and any other details you forgot to tell.. pain which starts in chest and radiates to neck and upper back can be due to heart issues(there can be other problems also apart fro heart attack) so i suggest you to visit a GP for general clinical examination EKG blood test and any other investigations if he feels necessary.. it is better if you can visit him at the earliest.. hope my answer helps you if you have any more queries i would be happy to answer..
