What Is The Treatment For Sharp Chest Pain Which Gets Extremely Painful While Swallowing?
I've been having sharp chest pains which get extremely painful when i swallow any form of liquid or food. I first thought of acid reflux or indigestion but after taking gaviscon and other heartburn/indigestion medicines it hasnt helped at all. I have been to my local gp after fainting from the pain/lightheadedness causes by this and was advised to give it a couple of weeks. Its been a week now but it only seems to be getting worse do you know of what this could be or any possible ways to help?
