Avatar n tn To better understand the connection I looked up the cross-sectional anatomy of the chest and found the the trachea runs along the back of the heart.

Avatar m tn Last night I had to end up to go to emergency again due to the chest pain and food stucked in the throat and chest. My blood test for HELICOBACTER PYLORI AB is 1.62 which is positive. Today I felt pressure and food on my chest and something stuck in my throat the whole day. I am so afraid now. I schedule another appt with my primary physician the next two days. My question is how severe it is if HELICOBACTER PYLORI AB is 1.62. Does my sypmtom relate to cancer?
Avatar n tn I have been having shortness of breath at times, pain in my throat when singing and chest discomfort to the right of my sternum. I had a CT scan and the impression reads: Contrast allergy precludes PE protocol and hence pulmonary is not completely excluded from the differential. Follow-up as deemed clinically necessary.

Avatar m tn s and a liquid diet for the first 1-2 weeks after surgery to allow for healing.

Avatar m tn Citrius-water helps throat infections. It's normal to have chest infections when the throat is hurt. Chest defends and protects the breathe and breathing system. When the throat is hurt, the chest must bear some pain or the body is in other major diseases. Browny/reddy colour only appears when the body's immune system begins to decay with the digestive organs. It is the level 2 symptom to this problem.
Avatar f tn At mine they measured everything about the baby. Arms, legs, chest, head, etc. They checked the placenta and made sure the umbilical cord was attached properly. They checked the amniotic fluid, my cervix, and my ovaries for cysts. Made sure there was two kidneys and four chambers in the heart.
Avatar n tn I have similar symptoms - chest cracking and soreness, throat tightness - and have not been able to find anything to help. The doctor said it is probably costochondritis but also suggested seeing a rheumatologist. I have not been to the rheumantologist and decided to try ibuprofen for costochondritis first.
Avatar f tn It is unlikely to be life threatening, but the stasis can cause a feeling of fullness in the chest and chest discomfort. It can also lead to indigestion. Very rarely the contents may regurgitate into the trachea or wind pipe. Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
Avatar f tn It is usually accompanied by chest pain in the middle and upper chest. I have a feeling like my chest is full of air and my throat is swollen. There's no pain in my throat, just this annoying feeling of a lump. I have had a normal stressecho and holter monitor test, but I can't help feeling llike it could still be my heart. Sometimes it feels worse if I hunch forward. I have been having a little shortness of breath, especially when I have the lump in the throat feeling.
