The symptoms you are describing, especially chest pain that radiates to the left hand, could be indicative of a heart problem. It is important to seek medical attention immediately.

To detect heart disease in the body, tests such as Electrocardiogram (ECG), Echocardiogram, Stress test, Cardiac catheterization, and CT scan may be done. Symptoms of a heart attack may include chest pain or discomfort, upper body pain, shortness of breath, nausea, lightheadedness, and cold sweats. To prevent a heart attack, it is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle by exercising regularly, eating a balanced diet low in saturated fats, managing stress, avoiding smoking, and controlling conditions like high blood pressure and diabetes.

It sounds like you may be experiencing acid reflux or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) causing your chest pain. In this case, you can try taking a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) like omeprazole 20mg once daily before breakfast for at least 2 weeks. Additionally, you can take an antacid like Gaviscon after meals and at bedtime for immediate relief. Make sure to avoid spicy and fatty foods, eat smaller meals, and avoid lying down right after eating. If symptoms persist, you may need further evaluation by a gastroenterologist.
