What Causes Pressure And Pain In Back Radiating To Chest, Arm And Neck?
I beleive that I have had 2 angina attack in the last week, the most recent was last night. I am a 61 woman and 50 lbs overweight. Last night the attack occurred while watching tv, I had pressure in my back and chest with pain that went up my arm and neck. The pain wasn t real bad but it definately was pain. What would you suggest I do?
From your description I am of the opinion that I am pretty sure it was an anginal attack. You should keep tablet sorbitrate and nitroglycerine always with you in case of emergency it can be used. it will relieve your anginal pain.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Ashish Ranjan, General & Family Physician
