The Solution To Mild to Moderate Chronic Chest Pain
    #10428231 -

This may not be the end all solution for everyone, but I've developed mild to moderate chronic chest pain that occurs without any instigators.

Even when I work out extremely hard, such as paintball which would normally put large stress on the heart, I don't feel it.  When I'm doing other things it hurts all day long.

But the only thing I've done is take large 'water pipe' hits over the past few years.  I think the intense transfer of a chemical through the lungs puts a large strain on the heart.


If you have any chronic pain like this and you've taken large hits consistantly over the year, you might want to consider taking smaller less intense hits.

Please give feedback if you have any other solutions.

Can you describe your chest pain in more detail?

Do you drink cold beverages or eat cold food?  If I eat or drink something too cold I get bad chest pains.  I didn't notice it for years because it takes five or ten minutes to kick in, but then lasts for fifteen minutes up to an hour.

I'm drinking a cold beverage right now - so I'll let you know if I notice in 10-15 minutes.  I don't think that is truly it though.

I also don't drink alcohol.

The chest pain is like a throbbing dull (yet sharp sometimes) pain in the left of the chest.  It has to be the heart because breating has no effect on it.  It gets more annoying and worriesome than anything.  I haven't taken any pain medication for it.

This is concerning. How old are you? Do you ever feel like an elephant is sitting on your chest? Have you ever felt like your heart was racing, that you couldn't catch your breath, or that you were going to pass out; or even in some combination? Do you have a family history of heart disease? Do you smoke? Drink alcohol? What's your blood pressure? Ever turn blue, corners of your lips even? etc.. etc..

While there could be other causes to your chest pain, which are not heart related, it is a good idea to see your GP and tell him/her about your pain in detail, get your blood pressure checked, and maybe some baseline bloodwork including cholesterol, TGs, CRP, among others.

If you are describing chest pain at rest a doctor would want to rule out unstable angina; as unstable angina is a dangerous condition in which there is some reduced oxygen delivery to the heart (called ischemia) that results in pain, this could be due to clot formation, rupture of plaque on the wall, or vasospasm. This is a good warning of a near future heart attack in which there is total blockage and death (called infarction) of the heart muscle.

If the answers to the questions above indicate low risk you can  feel better that chances are your heart and cardiovascular system are healthier than one could hope, however one has to now rule out other causes of your chest pain which cold include pleurisy, pneumonia, TB, connective tissue disease, multiple myeloma, idiopathic benign pleuritic chest pain, and the list goes on and on and on.

Unfortunately I'm out of health insurance right now, and I'm a healthy 22 year old male.

My blood pressure is a stable 120/70.

The pain does get to be a problem though and it happens at the weirdest times.

Apparently not.

Elaborate "at the weirdest times".  After you eat?  When you lie down?  After you tie your shoes?

You should be carefull, chronic pain is usually no joke. Its probably an underlying symptom to a bigger problem. You should definetly go see a doctor, AT LEAST GO TO A FREE CLINIC. This could be anything from a hernia, ulcer, lung or heart issues.

You can always wait but it will probably just get worse not better.
And Don't worry I don't think the actual size of the hit your taking of the bong has anything to do with it. Maybe try a vaporizer you can get some good ones cheap off of ebay.
