Hello,

Long standing chest pain can be due to gastrointestinal problem or pleural pathology. I suggest you to consult a gastroenterologist for examination of upper GI tract - endoscopy to assess the esophagus and stomach to look for any changes due to regurgitation. Gastrointestinal reflux disease can lead to chest pain and soreness of throat.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Hi,

Get absence of heart or coronary problem confirmed by consulting cardiologist. I would also suggest MRI of cervical thoracic spine. Possible spondylitis can cause such symptoms.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
