Question
Hello doctor,
I have a tightness in my chest and neck, very uncomfortable. A few months ago, I had an endoscopy once when I had reflux esophagitis, antral inflammation, HP bacteria. I took the medicine twice, but after that I did not see any improvement. On the day of re-examination, I got an epidemic so I couldn't go, now I feel tired and don't know what to do. I lost a lot of weight. So the doctor asked me what is the symptom of chest tightness? Is this disease dangerous? Thank you doctor.

Answered by Master, Doctor Pham Thi Thu Huong - Department of General Internal Medicine, Vinmec Times City International Hospital.
Hello,
With the question “What is the sign of chest pain? ", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
You have endoscopy of the esophagus and stomach, so the cause of obstruction can be ruled out due to an abnormality in the esophageal lumen. Given your chest tightness, it's more likely that you have extraesophageal reflux.
You can self-monitor at home, if you have unusual symptoms, you need to see a doctor urgently. You can continue to use the prescribed medicine, when you can go to the doctor, it is best to go to the doctor for specific advice.
If you still have questions about chest tightness, you can go to a hospital under Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
