hi mam/sir,i can understand your distress.most common cause of
chest pain in young is muscular in origin.but as you suspect some other cause,just check the following once:
1)if there is any
profuse sweating,
dizziness and breathlessness during the attack,we can think of angina.he can have an ECG,2D ECHO done to confirm if any.
2)if there is any history of usage of narcotic drugs or anti depressants,we can think of anxiety.
3)he can also have a chest X-ray AP and PA views done to rule out any lung and bony(rib cage and sternal causes).
if all the above come normal,ask him to have an
analgesic like ibuprofen and to allay his anxiety,the following can be done:
1)a good sleep for atleast 6-8hrs.
2)he can go for mind
relaxation techniques like
meditation and yoga.
3)indulging in sports also makes a happy mind and a strong body.
4)
counselling also helps to overcome anxiety.
hope my explanation has cleared your doubts.still any queries,kindly let me know.thank you.take care.bye.
