Chest Pain - Symptoms

Heart-related chest pain

While chest discomfort is mostly associated with heart disease, it is difficult to correctly attribute the patient’s chest pain to a heart condition. Some general signs of chest pain related to a heart attack or other heart conditions include:

Shortness of breath
Cold sweats
Dizziness or fatigue
Nausea or vomiting
Pressure or tightness in your chest
A deep pain which radiates to your neck, jaw, back and arms — particularly on the left arm
Intermittent pain or pain which lasts for a while, especially becoming worse with exertion
