Last night I was awake severe chest pain like heartburn pains in chest and upper back. Went dr today they gave me omeprazole and said I have heartburn. 23 hours later still feel like I have something stuck in my trachea just sitting and worse every time I swallow. Its a burning sensation. I took a tablet before bed last night could it still be stuck but would that cause burning sensation in waves?
Dear, welcome to Chat Doctor, and thanks for choosing us. I share your concerns. There are following possibilities I can think of with symptoms you have mentioned, taking into consideration1 heart ailment (possibly transient attacks, can become real heart attack if not investigated and treated), chest tightness suggest this. 2 HERD (acid reflux from stomach to esophagus), nausea suggest this.3. Lastly anxiety disorders. I would advise you to go in following target an ECG done and discuss with your cardiologist. Cardiologist will be able to guide you for HERD too. For GERD, you may require an endoscopy of stomach. If both are normal, Lastly you may require a visit to psychologist. I hope my reply will help you. Please write to us or me for further information. I wish you good health.
