Hello,
With the question “What is the risk of chest pain with anxiety disorder? ", the doctor answered as follows:
With the symptoms you mentioned such as chest tightness or throbbing in the chest, it is not typical for any cardiovascular disease if it is not related to exertion (such as during active If you exercise more, the pain goes away, for example..). It is possible that you have an "anxiety disorder" and this is not a physical heart disease.
However, if your symptoms persist, affecting your life, activities, study, and work, you should go to a hospital that specializes in Cardiology for treatment. The tests rule out physical diseases, from which the doctor will prescribe the appropriate treatment.
If you still have questions about chest tightness with anxiety disorders, you can go to a hospital of Vinmec Health System to get checked. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wish you a lot of health.
