I am having some discomfort under my left breast I was wondering If that is a sign of a heart attack?

Answer 1

It dosent sound like a heart attack..When I had mine it started in the chest and moved down my left arm...I was sick at my stomach and felt like I was going to pass out..Also broke out in a sweat..However I do feel like you need to go to the doctor and have it checked out.

Answer 2

i doubt it's a heart attack if that's your only symptom... however... if you are seriously concerned then go to the emergency room.

now... more likely it is your gall bladder... if the pain changes or lessens when you adjust your arm or position that's a sign it's a hard tissue problem, for example you have a rib a little out of place (most commonly happens in people who lean sideways on their couch) or something like that.

if the pain does not change when you adjust position then it's a soft tissue problem... as in your gall bladder, you've pulled a muscle around your rib cage, something like that. if the pain increases and you cannot find relief from drinking milk or using antiacids then you need to see a doctor pretty quickly. if the case is extreme you may need your gall bladder removed, if the case isn't extreme you will need to clean up your diet and cut down on red meat.

either way a chiropractor and nutritionist can help you.

Answer 3

Not a heart attack, but have it checked out to make sure it is not a form of angina. Find it ,if it is early ,so that the treatment can be simple. See a cardiologist
