View allI've been having this burning sensation in my left arm for the last four months. It happens even when Im just resting and not doing anything. It's accompanied by shoulder pain, mild chest pain sometimes, and other weird pains in my upper abdomen, neck, and jaw. Ive gone through a bunch of tests like ECG, Echo, 2D X-ray, and stress TMT, and they all came back normal. I've been told it's just anxiety or maybe cervical spondylosis, but Im super scared and can't shake off this feeling that its a heart problem. Do you think these symptoms could be related to some cardiac issue, or am I just overthinking?
From your description, it sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms related to anxiety and cervical spondylosis. The burning sensation in your left arm, shoulder pain, upper abdomen pain, muscle pains, neck pain, jaw pain, and mild chest pain could all be related to these conditions. Since your ECG, 2D echo, x-ray, and stress TMT results are normal, it is less likely to be related to a cardiac problem. To help with your symptoms, you can take medications like acetaminophen for pain relief and muscle relaxants for muscle pains. Additionally, you can use anti-anxiety medications like lorazepam to help with your anxiety symptoms. For cervical spondylosis, you can take medications like ibuprofen for pain and inflammation. It is important to also practice relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing exercises and mindfulness meditation, to help manage your anxiety symptoms. Physical therapy and neck exercises can also be beneficial for cervical spondylosis. Make sure to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management of your symptoms.

I've been having this pain in my left chest, and sometimes it even spreads to my hand. It's starting to worry me, and I'm not sure if it's something serious. What do you think I should do about it? Should I be concerned?
The symptoms you are experiencing, such as pain in the left chest and pain in your hand, could be indicative of a heart-related issue. It is important to seek medical attention immediately. In the meantime, you can take Aspirin 325mg to help with potential heart-related pain. Please do not delay in seeking medical help.
