Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Since he was a smoker, we should first rule out heart diseases for his chest pain. So get done ECG and 2d echo. If both these are normal then no need to worry about heart diseases. He is also having indigestion. So gastritis can be the cause for his chest pain and indigestion because gastritis is more common in smokers. So tell him to avoid hot and spicy food, junk food. Take pantoprazole and levosulperide combination on empty stomach twice daily. Don't worry, he will be alright with all these. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your husband. Thanks.
