Chest Tightness

What It Is
Chest discomfort can be any unusual discomfort or pain you feel along the front of your body occurring between your neck and upper abdomen.

Examples
Numerous causes of chest pain exist. Most are mild, some are serious and possibly life-threatening. In actual fact, any organ or tissue in your chest cavity can cause pain, including muscles, nerves, ribs, tendons, heart, lungs and the esophagus.

Symptoms
If you're like most other, you don't like to think about certain warnings relating to the heart, but recognizing them can save your life, so you are very very wise to learn them.

Principal warnings can include:

• Any chest pain that is new or different from previous chest pains;
• Any feeling that your chest is being squeezed or severely pressured;
• Any severe tightness in the chest;
• Any pain that spreads from the chest to your back (between the shoulder blades), your left arm or your jaw;
• A feeling that your heart is racing, especially in conjunction with shortness of breath, heart palpitations, dizziness, sweating or nausea;
• A cough that produces green or yellow phlegm.

High Risk Factors that may Apply

• A family history of heart disease;
• If you smoke;
• If you use cocaine;
• If you have high cholesterol;
• If you have high blood pressure.

What to do in an Emergency

• Let friends and family know anytime you're feeling especially unwell;
• If you suspect a heart attack, call 911 immediately.
• Brush up on your knowledge of the foods and diets that result in solid health. A good source on the proper vitamins and fruits you should eat daily are covered in superb detail in the book "The Smoke Stops Here!" (www.thesmokestop.com)
