Doctors said that many people begin to misdiagnose themselves when they experience pain in the chest or heart area. These symptoms can signal diseases of various organs.

The most common is ischemia, which is accompanied by pain behind the sternum and in the upper part of the abdomen. They pass after taking drugs, and also occur after physical or emotional stress.

Doctors noted that sharp pain can occur during intercostal neuralgia, but it is not localized in the center, and can also go into a chronic stage. Cardialgia occurs due to problems with the gastrointestinal tract, in patients who have osteochondrosis or vegetative-vascular dystonia.

Doctors added that heart rhythm disturbances may be associated with arrhythmia, and also indicate problems with the heart – vascular system. Tachycardia can develop after the coronavirus, as well as destabilization of blood pressure.

Many people complain of hypertension, but the elderly are most often at risk. Also, in this case, viral myocarditis may develop, which is accompanied by swelling of the legs, pain in the heart area, and shortness of breath.
