I've been having some chest pains and headaches..what could it be?

Question

Im an 18y/o white male. the chest pain isint severe or anything its just a little bit of discomfort. it also feels like tight at the bottom of my ribcage on both sides right above my abdomen.

Answer 1

sure are a lot of "experts" in here trying to show off some spectacular vocabulary words and random diagnoses.

no need to panic, but worry enough to schedule a regular physical with a doctor. you should do this at least once every two years at minimum anyway, once a year ideally. anyway, when you get there, a nurse will most likely triage you before the doctor comes in. when the nurse is taking your blood pressure and asking you the reasons for your visit, mention these symptoms.... the doctor will be in shortly.

Answer 2

You should go see a medical professional. Getting diagnoses here is not a good idea. There is a number of things this could be, and chest pain is no joke.

Answer 3

Get off of the computer and get to a doctor....could be anything from a muscle pull to a heart problem

Answer 4

it could be pancreatitis. So best thing to do is go see a Doc. before it gets bad. Pancreastitis is cause by drinking, if you don't do it,by high Triglycerides , have it checked out to be safe.

Answer 5

did you pull a muscle? besides your heart, there are muscles that run through that area. if the pain spreads down your arm, or it is difficult to breathe, go call a doc immediately.

Answer 6

You might have a mitral valve prolapse. Generally, this condition is benign, but you need to see your doctor to rule out anything serious.

Answer 7

most likely it just stress, happened to me while i was in the service

Answer 8

I would be getting in to see a Dr. real soon!!!!!

Answer 9

heart burn
