Would Slow Digestion Process Cause Heaviness Of Chest And Stomach?
I am 35 yrs - male, since past few weeks, i have been feeling heaviness in my stomach just below the chest. i did a sonography and doctor said the digestions process is too slow and food is staying in the stomach. there is some infection due to hyperacidity.
Hi, The description given by you does not match the symptoms of slow digestion. Ultrasound cannot diagnose slow digestion. You need to perform other specific tests for testing the digestive process. Get a Chest x ray and ECG done to rule out cardiopulmonary issues. Regards
