[|Human|] I am 19 years old , weight 145 pounds and am 5 foot 5. I was diagnosed with asthma about 6 weeks ago. My symptoms include chest pain and shortness of breath. I am using an inhaler , but it only helps with the shortness of breath. The chest pain has woken me up at night, and I am worried that it is a heart condition. I am bipolar and have had anxiety , but my anti anxiety medications don t relieve the chest pain either. Also, sometimes my heart will pound loudly and my chest will hurt. Is it a heart condition, or just the asthma?
[|AI|]  Hello dear. Chest pain can be caused by various reasons, including minor problem such as indigestion or stress, to serious medical emergencies such as a heart attack. The symptoms as mentioned in your post suggest that it might be due to underlying cardiac pathology. So, investigations like an Electrocardiogram or Stress Echocardiography can clinch the diagnosis. Other causes of chest pain include:1. Strained chest muscles due to overuse2. Respiratory tract infection3. Short-term, sudden anxiety with rapid breathing4. Peptic ulcer disease5. Pain from the digestive tract, such as esophageal reflux So, it will be better to consult a Doctor & get a physical examination done to rule out other causes. So that proper management steps could be taken. Wishing you a Good Health. Let me know if I need to clarify further. Thanks & take care.
