[|Human|] Pressure in chest when sitting. Not in middle of chest but on both sides like where the lungs are.not lower area but high up nipple high or higher. I am 71. And active farmer. Have thyroid problem and blood pressure. Bp medicine is 20 mg of benicar. Thyroid is 88 of Levithyroxine.
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Possibility of musculoskeletal pain is more in your case. But since you are old age (71 years) and having hypertension and hypothyroidism, cardiac cause for chest pain must be ruled out first. So get done blood pressure monitoring, ECG and 2d echo to rule out heart diseases. If all these are normal then no need to worry about heart diseases. You are a active farmer. So heavy exertion might be causing you bilateral chest pain. So avoid heavyweight lifting and strenuous exercise. Avoid movements causing pain. Avoid bad postures in sleep. Take painkiller like ibuprofen. Apply warm water pad on affected areas. Don't worry, you will be alright. But better to first rule out heart diseases. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
