Hello doctor,
I feel angina and difficulty breathing. In September 2020, he went to the doctor and was diagnosed with non-specific chest pain, cardiac neuropathy, sinus bradycardia / incomplete P bundle branch block. After taking the medicine for a while, I no longer felt the pain, but now I feel the pain again and stronger, accompanied by a sharp pain like a needle poked in the left back about 20cm from the shoulder. The doctor asked me if my chest pain is like a needle in the back of the left side? I thank the doctor.

Answered by Doctor Nguyen Van Duong - Interventional Cardiologist - Cardiovascular Center - Vinmec Central Park International General Hospital.
Hello friend,
With the question "What's wrong with angina like a needle in the back of the left side?", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Usually the symptoms of angina are often related to cardiovascular disease. The danger is coronary artery disease. However, you are quite young, without cardiovascular factors, so it is possible that your cardiovascular risk is quite low, although it cannot be completely ruled out. Other possible causes of symptoms as you describe include groups of lung diseases such as pneumothorax - pleural effusion, pneumonia or lung abscess, groups of musculoskeletal and neurological diseases of the chest.
To determine exactly you need to see a Cardiologist for diagnosis and treatment.
If you still have questions about the symptoms of angina pectoris such as a needle in the left back, you can go to the hospital of Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
