What Could Recurring Pain In Jaw And Chest With Pressure In Head Indicate?

Driving home from work today, I had a sharp pain from my jaw on the left side to the top of my head. It didn't last long, just a few seconds. Then after I got home I had a short pain in my far left chest. Again it did not last long. My husband and I went for a walk and my left arm and hand started to tingle. Again it did not last only but a few seconds. All the tingling is gone but I feel slight pressure on the left side of my head. Should I be concerned? Sue

Hi dear ,

As per your query your have feeling of pain and pressure in jaw , chest and arm while walking . Well there can be many reasons for such pain and pressure ranging from simple gastric pain to more serious cardiac problem ( heart problems . I would suggest you to stay calm and consult cardiologist without any delay . Moreover dull pain and pressure on walking or doing some exertion which go away on resting indicating towards cardiac problems . Doctor may order certain tests like ECG , TMT , chest X-ray and blood test and sometimes recommend angiography . Doctor may prescribe medicines like beta blockers and aspirin .

Hope your concern has been resolved.
