Why does my heart HURT?

Try putting a heating pad on your chest while you are laying in bed. That might make the muscles relax a bit.\nAre you sure that it's your heart that is hurting and not your lungs? You say that you have insane allergies and cold right now. A cough in essence is a trauma to your lungs. Any type of heavy coughing causes everything to bump into one another in there. Think of it as a blender effect. If you are at all concerned I would talk to your allergist. They might be able to perscribe something to help with the coughing and it might ease your pain. Definatley seek help because there also might be a more serious issue in there. Granted I'm not a doctor but you don't want to dismiss anything when it comes to your health. \nHere's hoping for you to get well soon.

Do you have any other symptoms? It sounds like it is normal heartburn, but it definitely could be related to stress and anxiety. I've also heard that an injury, such as a broken rib, can cause chest burning. \n\nSometimes burning in the chest can be related to a heart attack, but if you're a heath 22-year-old and you're not experiencing throbing pain or shortness of breath, it's probably not serious.

I urge you in the strongest possible terms to have your symptoms investigated immediately.  I think the emergency room would be appropriate.\n\nYour kids need you, and you need your heart.  \n\nIf your problem is not a heart problem, well, great.  That will be good to know.  But please don't delay getting help.  Chest pain is not something to ignore.

Chest discomfort. Most heart attacks involve discomfort in the center of the chest that lasts for more than a few minutes, or goes away and comes back. The discomfort can feel like uncomfortable pressure, squeezing, fullness, or pain.\n\nDiscomfort in other areas of the upper body. Can include pain or discomfort in one or both arms, the back, neck, jaw, or stomach.\n\nShortness of breath. Often comes along with chest discomfort. But it also can occur before chest discomfort.\n\nOther symptoms. May include breaking out in a cold sweat, nausea, or light-headedness\n\nno hair loss is not a symptom\n\nhan

<>You leave out a wealth of information, such as your age and medical history, but....While these are probably very benign pains associated with, say, exercise, muscular contractions, or even stress, any chest pain that bothers you is worthy of being checked.  I say go see a doctor and ask about them.  That way, you can have a clear conscience if he/she can explain them to you.

I would say the key to your question is that the pain intensifies with movement. This is usually not indicative of cardiac problems. Have you tried any over the counter meds for pain relief? If it is not relieved with meds I would suggest a trip to the Dr. but it does seem like muscle or back problem.

where do you live? It IS winter and the air could be pretty cold and dry which will hurt in your mose when you breath hard. As for chest pains it could be a number of reasons but if u are just starting to run or jog then perhaps your body is just not used to it. Monitor yourself carefully, it might or might not be anything.

Actually, it sounds like you're having anxiety attacks.  The symptoms of anxiety attacks often mimic heart attack symptoms and can, therefore, be really frightening.  It's sad that there's a doctor who doesn't seem to take you seriously and who makes you feel like you're just imagining your symptoms.  My advice is to find another doctor and specifically ask about anxiety.  There are medications that can help.

See a doctor and have them check it out.  It's better to be safe than to have your heart just stop one day and collapse while you're "feeling just fine".

Could be heart arrhythmia, irregular heart beat which is usually begnine.  If you are very worried you should consult your doctor.

My panic attacks are similar to a heart attack - except for the pain in the heart. I struggle to breathe, collapse and break out in sweat and have heart palpitations but no heart pain. Not fun at all. Deep breaths, try stay calm and you should be OK. Hope you don't get another attack!

People experience a variety of symptoms when having a heart attack.  Some describe the pain as being in the middle of their chest and "crushing, squeezing, tight, pressure, or burning". Others say the pain is on the right or left side of the chest.  Sometimes the pain is excruciating and sometimes it husrts "just a little". Sometimes it extends to one or both arms, the jaw, or between the shoulder blades.  Alot of people get short of breath, nauseous, sweaty.  Some people have every single one of these symptoms, some have only one or two.  Women are more likely than men to have atypical symptoms, i.e., maybe they're a little nauseous, or their back hurts or their arm feels funny, making it difficult for them to realize it is a cardiac problem and they need to call 911....I hope this answers your question.

If the pain is after doing some exercise/walking, then it may be Angina (consult the Doctor immediatly), if it is random, it may be due to some stomach problem,  or even some muscular pain. I have recently have Bypass surgery, and studied a lot of literature, if you need any assistance in case of heart problem, then contact me at hafeez_butt@yahoo.com

I don't know how old you are, so I can't really answer. Irregular heartbeat can result from a number of factors:\nstress, fear, etc\nlack of sleep\nunhealthy lifestyle\nArrhythmia, which usually occurs in fit and young people (which is what I have).\nIf there is no pain or discomfort and this has been happening for a long time, it should be OK, but maybe you should consult a doctor.\nHope it helps!

Take the pen out of your pocket. (Just kidding) Any kind of chest pain should be a reason to stop what you've been doing, and seek a Doctor's help.

You may have PSVT which is a fast heart rate. It is very annoying and is scary when you feel it. It is treatable though. Do you drink /eat a lot of caffiene? (Cokes, tea coffee, chocolate?) Ask your doctor to put a Holter Monitor on you and see if anything shows up there. It is a 24 hour monitor you wear and it monitors your heart.  Good luck!
