Body pains
I recently got chest pain and it's mild, but my pain continued to arms and back. So i went to cardiologist ECG and 2D echo tests were done, reports came out that my heart is perfectly alright. I also have gas issues so doctor told me it would be because of gas and gave me some tabs and I'm using it but I'm not feeling any pain in the abdomen or bloating like that but i burp more than average. Sometimes i feel pain at my legs and hands and it fades away and again at chest or back some where or the other but not face and abdomen. I guess this might not be because of only gas. Is it any muscle spasm or nerve? I'm not experiencing any severe pain it's just a mild uncomfortable pain. I've attached my cbc report. What should i do?

Your ECG and 2D echo being normal is very reassuring and rules out any major heart problem. Your CBC report is also essentially normal, with no significant abnormalities. The type of pain you describe – shifting between chest, back, arms, and legs, mild in nature, not worsening with exertion, and associated with burping – is much more suggestive of gastric acidity, muscle strain, or even nerve-related pain rather than heart disease.
Next Steps
Continue the medications given by your doctor for gastric issues.
Avoid excess tea, coffee, spicy/oily food, and late-night meals.
Practice regular stretching/physical activity to reduce muscle spasm.
Manage stress and ensure good sleep, since anxiety can also cause such shifting discomfort.
Health Tips
If the pain becomes severe, persistent, or is associated with sweating, breathlessness, or dizziness, seek immediate medical attention. Otherwise, there is no serious concern from your reports at present.

Hello,
Your CBC report is normal, and with a normal ECG and 2D Echo, a cardiac cause for your chest pain is unlikely. The mild, shifting pain you describe â sometimes in the chest, arms, back, and without consistent gastric symptoms â can often be due to musculoskeletal causes such as costochondritis (inflammation of the chest wall cartilage) or muscle spasm. Gastric reflux may also contribute to burping and discomfort.
Management advice:
Continue gastric medicines as prescribed.
For chest wall/cartilage inflammation, simple measures like warm compresses, gentle stretching, and avoiding strenuous chest movements are helpful.
If pain is bothersome, short course of anti-inflammatory medicines (like paracetamol/NSAIDs, if not contraindicated) can be taken after doctorâs advice.
Maintain upright posture, avoid heavy lifting, and practice regular light exercise.
If pain becomes severe, is associated with breathlessness, dizziness, or persistent tightness, please seek urgent medical review.
You can connect with me here on Practo for detailed guidance, or reach me directly at eight five two seven one six four six seven seven.

Probably muscular pain and because of acid reflux you feel like burning and chest pain. You should take pan40 for acidity and Zix-MR tablet for muscular spasm.

The way you are describing, seems muscular pain, though more detailed information is needed.
When pain occurs, take tab flexon m.r one every 8hours after meals.
Take tab Shelcal M one morning and one evening for a month.
For burping- do you have constipation?
Take small frequent meals, eat slowly, avoid fatty meals, gas producing foods like cauliflower, broccoli,sodas, alcohol, smoking, chewing gum, sucking candy.
Take tab Simethicone 150mg 3 times a day after meals for a week.
Tab Esmo 20mg one morning and one evening for 7 days.

This is not dangerous and can be managed with lifestyle changes and medicines.

Continue the medicines prescribed for acidity.
Eat smaller, lighter meals and avoid spicy/oily food.
Gentle stretching and regular exercise can help muscle-related pain.
