18 hour flight from Rome to Seattle in coach. After flight, developed periodic left chest pain - comes and goes. Applying pressure helps relieve the symptoms. It is about 2,3 out of 10 and some cold sweats. 3 days later and still an issue. What should I do?
Hi thanks for contacting Chat Doctor. Noted you have done 18-hour journey ... Have you common cold ?? Running nose?? Headache??? Etc. I want to rule out first viral cold or flu as it can lead chest discomfort. Symptomatic management done with Ben Chat Doctor. ... Here you also can have unaccustomed sleep posture or muscular strain that can lead chest pain...rest and analgesic needed. See you are telling pain with sweating... So dear if it is constricting pain then ischemic heart disease rule out by ECG or echocardiography. Hope your concern solved. You can contact Chat Doctor with ECG report if it is notable.
