Why Am I Having Chest Pain?
Chest pain can signify a broad range of conditions from minor causes such
as acid reflux to serious and life-threatening, such as a heart attack.
Chest pain is one of the most common causes of emergency room visits in
the United States. Our professionals will ask you questions about your
history in order to help determine the reason for your chest pain. Other
follow-up tests may include blood tests, CT scans, and X-rays. Our advanced
team can provide the immediate services you need to get answers and care.
Heart Attack Symptoms:
Chest pain
Discomfort in chest, arms, back, neck, shoulder, or jaw
Difficulty breathing
A heart attack can be caused when a blood vessel or blood vessels are clogged
by plaque. Heart attacks can be treated with medications or surgery to
clear blood passage through those blood vessels. It is important to obtain
immediate medical attention if you experience or witness someone experiencing
a heart attack.
Stroke Symptoms:
Numbness, weakness or loss of movement in your face, leg, or arm - especially
on one side
Confusion, trouble speaking or understanding
Loss of balance
If you have these symptoms or think you are having a heart attack or stroke,
call 911 immediately.
