<human>: Hi there, I just wondered if you could help. For the last few days whenever I walk or do physical exercise I get really quite severe pain at the top of my chest, central but radiating slightly to the left. I do not get any pain when at rest. What is the best way to treat this?
<bot>: Hello there! The pain in the chest coming on with exertion and being relieved on rest is typical of angina. You haven't mentioned your age and any other co-existing illnesses.However, to begin with you should get your blood pressure (BP) measured several times to rule out high BP and also get an ECG done. A Lipid Profile and Blood Sugar levels too would be helpful in sorting out your condition. Please do not ignore this exertional pain. Hope this helped. All the best!
