Upper Chest pain & shortness of breath

2023-06-23 05:04:32
Hi I got covid in 2021 but luckily recovered in home itself. Got few issues for Chest, head and breathing but all the reports were normal. I have upper chest pain sometimes but it goes away quickly so does shortness of breath. But I have it consistent since last two days after I ate food from outside. Upper chest pains and I struggle to breath ( deep breathing helps) What can be the cause? Should I go for an xray again?

From the history of outside food it may be due to hyperacidity. Take rabez L half hr before taking food  twice a day for 5 days.
