❄️ Chest discomfort in winter can be confusing. Many people assume it’s just acidity or gas — but in some cases, chest pain may be related to the heart. Knowing the difference can help you take the right action at the right time. 🔍 Chest Pain vs Acidity – Key Differences : 🫁 Acidity-Related Chest Pain • Burning sensation behind the chest • Often after meals or while lying down • May improve with antacids • Usually linked with bloating or sour taste ❤️ Heart-Related Chest Pain • Pressure, tightness, or heaviness in the chest • Pain spreading to the left arm, jaw, back, or neck • Breathlessness, sweating, or nausea • Worsens with walking or exertion In winter, blood vessels constrict and blood pressure may rise — increasing the risk of heart-related chest pain, especially in seniors and people with diabetes or high BP. 🚨 When Chest Pain Is Serious ✔ Chest pain lasting more than a few minutes ✔ Pain with breathlessness, dizziness, or sweating ✔ Repeated chest pain during routine activities ✔ Chest pain that feels different from usual acidity “Chest pain should never be ignored or self-diagnosed. A timely heart evaluation helps us rule out serious causes and provide reassurance.” — Dr. Achyut Khandekar, Heart Specialist in Nagpur Visit Aasavari Clinic, Malviya Nagar, Khamla, Nagpur for guidance and evaluation. #ChestPainOrAcidity #ChestPainAwareness #HeartHealth #CardiologistInNagpur #HeartSpecialistNagpur
