I have a little bit of pain beside my armpit in the muscle area near the shoulder blade along with a little bit of chest pain. My heart was beating a little bit fast however my parents think it might be anxiety about exams that just passed/coming up. Should I be worried about it being more than just a little bit of pain along with anxiety..
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Yes, these symptoms can be due to anxiety. But better to rule arrhythmia (rhythm disturbances in heart) because it can also cause chest pain, faster heart beats etc. So consult doctor and get done ECG, 2d echo and Holder monitoring (24 hours continuous recording of ECG). If all these are normal then no need to worry about arrhythmia or other heart diseases. Stress and anxiety can also cause similar symptoms. So consult psychiatrist and get done counselling sessions. Try to identify stressor in your life and start working on its solution. You may need anxiolytic Chat Doctor.  Avoid stress and tension, be relaxed and calm. Don't worry, you will be alright, but first rule out heart diseases. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
