2. Chest Pain

Chest pains are not only uncomfortable but can be an indication of a serious heart condition. Myocardial infarctions, myocarditis and coronary artery disease are just a few of these conditions.

Some of the causes could be arterial blockages, reduced blood flow or inflammation in the heart tissue. There are different types of chest pains, including sharp, stabbing, dull, burning and a crushing sensation. Chest pains may also indicate lung or abdominal issues; however, these are seldomly accompanied by heart murmurs.
