What Causes Pressure In The Heart Area?
Hello! Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM! I understand your concern and would like to explain that your symptoms are not related to any cardiac disorder (including angina). The symptoms you refer, may be related to a gastric disorder, like gastritis or dyspepsia. Anxiety could also mimic a similar symptomatology (due to phenomena of air swallowing related to anxiety). I recommend performing a fibrogastroscopy if the problem persists or is associated to heart burn. Meanwhile I would recommend not to worry about it and having a healthy diet, avoid spicy food and take plenty of water. Hope to have been helpful! Best regards, Dr. Iliri
