I'm experiencing pain when I tilt my head towards my left shoulder. I also have thyroid issues and asthma. When I move my neck to the left, there's this pain that travels from the back of my neck to my chest. Could this be something connected to my heart?

it may not necessarily be related to your heart. It could be due to muscle strain or tension in your neck and chest area. However, given your history of thyroid issues and asthma, it is important to rule out any other potential causes. To help alleviate the pain, you can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen. Additionally, applying a warm compress to the painful area and practicing gentle neck stretches may also provide some relief. If the pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

What is a heart cough?
Heavy breathing accompanied by spells of wet cough with frothy sputum that may be tinged with blood is called as "Cardiac cough or Heart cough". It is a sign of congestive heart failure. Additional symptoms such as shortness of breath on exertion or rest, leg swelling, waking up from sleep in the middle of night gasping and coughing differentiate heart cough from cough due to lung conditions.
