What Causes Tight Sensation In The Chest?
Hi, I have been having a tight chest for about a year.I thought I was allergic to dog hair or dust maybe.Two weeks ago I had pain in my chest,opposite side to my heart and attended the walk in clinic who said my blood pressure/heart etc was OK. I have since worked out that whenever I eat something sugary I get chest tightness and sometimes pain .Why could this be?

Hi,
The definite concern with allergen-induced bronchi spasm giving tight sensation in the chest. In my clinic, I recommend evaluating the case with an allergy specialist in terms of the type of sensitivity as prevention is the best medicine in this type of cases.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
