Sharp chest pain in the middle

Question

Asked for Female, 27 Years

For the past 1 month, my husband is having sharp chest pain in the middle when he does cardio. When he stops, the pain subsides. It started after he slept in wrong posture for around 1 hours. Not sure if we should consult a cardiologist or pulmonologist.

seems like it's muscular pain..still acid reflux and pulmonary cause needs to be ruled out..get a chest xray done and consult a Pulmonologist for further management!

Sharp pain needs to be evaluated by a simple ecg and a chest x ray atleast . Would like to know has he been doing regular exercises or started recently ? Any associated symptoms ? Any gastritis? Consider for a consult for detailed discussion and for treatment plan and prescription
