1:40 Causes of chest pain that are not the heart
7:02 Check out my video on abdominal pain!
If you experience chest pain, your first thought might be your heart. But, only 31% of chest pain cases have a connection to the heart. Even if it is related to the heart, it doesn’t mean it’s a heart attack.
There are a lot of different organs right under the chest cavity. A problem with one of these organs can often lead to chest pain. 42% of people with chest pain have a symptom related to their digestion-not the heart.
It’s good to ask yourself what happened just before you started experiencing chest pain. Maybe you ate something you shouldn’t have, or you’ve been under a lot of stress. This could help you narrow down the cause.
Chest pain causes that aren’t the heart:
1. GERD
2. The gallbladder/bile sludge
3. Costochondritis
4. Stress/panic attacks/broken heart syndrome
5. Pulmonary embolism
6. Pneumothorax
7. Aortic dissection
8. Pneumonia
9. Asthma
10. Shingles
11. Pericarditis

Thanks for watching! I hope this helps increase your awareness of the 11 causes of chest pain that are not the heart. I’ll see you in the next video.
I kept having heart pain, palpitations, sweating etc… The Doctors said all test returned normal. Well, something told me to take iron & magnesium. I also stop eating gluten. Can you believe all heart issues VANISHED… I still get a few palpitations every so often. I also lost my Dad recently so my heart is healing from a few things. Once my gut is completely healed, I think it will go away forever.
I've had chest pain for years. Have gone to a cardiologist several times. They run test/ekg. My last visit he even did a ultrasound and saw my heart. It's perfectly fine. I truly believe it's my digestive system. I need to heal my GUT!
Hi Dr. Berg, I often wish you would compile all of your knowledge into a set of books, Natural Healing from A-Z with Doctor B. In uncertain times, where we may lose power or internet, having this right at hand would be so valuable. Have you ever considered doing something like that?
@Long Man I would buy the whole set today 🤓
I that about it as well. Because Russia always threatened to disconnect the worldwide internet .
I will buy it
Agreed!!!!!!!!
@Long Man Yes because they are sooo similar. ..hee hee...but I know what you mean. You comment just made me smile
Thank you I needed that today.
Thank you very much for your professional advices, GOD BLESS YOU
Love learning these important topics . Thanks Dr. Berg 😊
For someone that has had a heart attack you will never imagine the comfort this information gave. Only those that have had one can know the fear when you feel uneasy and think it's your heart but as you said and I already knew there is a silence to having one but there still is always a fear left after the experience and all the other things you named are never thought about. Such an eye opener, so thank you so much for talking on this subject and giving the information, it truly helped me today.
It's my pleasure! Happy to know that you found the information useful.
Dr. Berg, you make things so easy to understand. I have watched several of your videos and you break things down in layman's terms, and I appreciate you sharing these educational videos. Thank you!!!
You have blessed me so much. I pray 🙏🏻 that these blessings return to you.
Very glad to be of help, thanks for watching!
When i lost the mother of my 3 kids in 2017 i went threw a broken heart syndrome it was so bad it knocked me 2 the floor.it was very vicious pain but our father in heaven granted me further life.I ALWAYS KNEW SHE IS THE LOVE OF MY LIFE.
You never fail to get me to pay attention, bless
I really needed to hear this. Thanks so much

In another video, you mentioned that a simple way to increase bile salts is dandelions. After that, I picked leaves and added them to a salad. I tried a leaf directly and barely noticed the bitterness. So I determined that I would not need to add them to a salad. Later, I decided to pick one of the flowers and just eat it, shortly before going for a meal. I normally suffer from constipation. That one flower opened things up, about 2 to 3 hours later. It was beyond belief. I hesitated to do it again, wondering if maybe it could have been something else, like illness. But a few weeks later, I did it again, with the same result. Finally, I know how to get quick relief from constipation. BTW, I've never had a laxative. But from what I've heard, the effect is the same but much stronger.
Great video as always! I have never seen anyone produce a video talking about chest pain and what other causes may produce this discomfort besides the heart.
Happy to know that you found the information useful.
Thank you Dr. Berg I’ve had chest pain recently and this helped to ease the concern.
Glad to help!
Thank you for posting this! I have a congenital heart defect that has lead to 7 stents, 21 heart caths, double bypass, sternum infection and many other issues. Every time I had/have chest pain, off to the ER! 99% of the time, it wasn't cardiac related. Turns out, I had an esophageal blockage, which required surgery, and was experiencing esophageal spasms. If you've never had an esophageal spasm, thank the stars!! The pain will bring you to your knees and the symptoms mimic a heart attack. I also had a PE a few years ago, and was diagnosed with GERD. SO, I've learned to listen to my body. When in doubt, of course have it checked out, but most chest pain isn't cardiac at all!!
You are the best dr I aver seen in my life
Good morning Dr. Berg thank you for this video, I have Costochondritis and fibromyalgia just too name a few. The pain is unbearable at times, I started taking TUDCA and have been getting them less n less. Your a blessing Doc🙏🏼

Dr beef with all the answers thank you very much
Thank you so much 😊
I had costochondritis nearly 3 years ago. Being a man in my 50s after reporting it to my doctor I then went into the hospital and spent the night having loads of tests with some ill people. I didn't think it was my heart though and some stretches fixed the problem.
Thank you so much Doc ❤😊
Dr Berg's contribution to our knowledge on health is literally vital. Thank you. I experienced digestive problems due to bereavement. In the days,weeks and months following a death, lack of exercise, lack of personal care, failed to eat regular meals led to health issues. Thankfully everything resolved on their own with time.
Would you consider doing a video on Achalasia? It also causes chest pain, and many many people have no idea what this disease is. I have a young family member who suffers with this. I would be forever grateful to hear your research on this disease. Most of my doctors have never heard of this. It’s an esophagus condition. Thanks so much Dr. Praying for your reply.
Amazing.that is exactly my problem.thanks for explaining
Glad to help!
Thank you 🙏🏼
Wow...had chest pain now for 9 nine months and no doctor could or better said didn't care to figure it out and I just found out after watching your video. Feeling so reliefed.
I immediately felt better after massaging under rib cage. Now I know what it is...thank you again and keep up with the good work :)
Glad this helped.
💜💜 thank you 🙏
Many thanks Dr!!!
Glad to help!
Hi sir, I'm from India. I have GERD and many times I rushed to hospital feeling pain in chest and EKG and 2D echo tests were normal. I weight 69 kgs. Doctors said pain is due to acid reflux. Thanks for video and removing fear in people.🙏
It's my pleasure! Happy to know you found the post useful.
Hii how r u now?
@@juleebanerjee4863 Hi I'm good now. Most of the symptoms resolved with good medicines and mainly diet planning. If diet goes wrong medicines also won't help, symptoms come back.
@@bhaskervm99 what medicine and what's your diet? I have the same issues
I’m so late but, I had really bad acid reflux in college and shortly after I started having really bad chest pain and spasms that would come and go. The doctors also said it was like a side effect or due to the acid reflux but I still never got a way to stop it other than to not eat after like 6/7:00
I’ve had this arcing pain on my left side above the nipple for many years. The latest diagnosis was cartilage stress between the ribs. It occurs quite often and seems to go away with massage. I’ve had these cartilage or ligament stress problems especially in my ankles that feels and acts like a sprained ankle. I’m a basketball official and the limping goes away if I just keep running it off after 5 minutes of extreme pain. I believe most of my chest pain is related to diet and digestion. This video and the next one have been enlightening to me as possible solutions that none of my doctors have been able to explain. My heart is strong and I’m in great shape. My heart has been ruled out. Much of the pain seems related to gas pains and acid reflux. I was wondering if a liver or pancreatic cleanse would help. I’m taking those pills now. Thanks for ALL your great videos. 🙏
You are most welcome! Happy to know that you found the information useful.
@john Warner thanks for sharing your experience. I feel Better about my upper chest pain. I had a feeling that it’s related to indigestion.

Very glad to be of help, thanks for watching!
Thank you for this video!! A couple of weeks ago I was feeling fine when I was at work and then all of a sudden I got this weird chest pain and could barely breathe and I thought I was dying. Dealt with it all night and finally went to the urgent care and the doctor there told me I could be having a heart attack and to go to the hospital. I’m 38!!! They ran blood and urine tests, x-rays and was hooked up to the ekg machine. Nada. Came back 4 days later bc I was still dealing with everything and they did all the above again but also a cat scan and gave me fluids. I started to feel fine after that but still every test came back normal.
I started to think back to the day when all this happened. I was stressing out over how I have to begin life over again bc my fiancé broke up with me a couple months ago. I’m just now able to move out and packing by myself was bringing me down. But then the guy who raped me in 2004 died that day and I think EVERYTHING hit me like a Mack truck. My ex knew what this guy did (I barely told anyone) but I couldn’t talk to my ex bc he just doesn’t care anymore. After watching this video I’ve concluded that the “broken heart syndrome” fits me perfectly. I thought thats what it was during my 2nd hospital trip but this just confirms it. I hope I can get over it all bc sometimes the pain is unbearable
Thank you Dr Berg 🙏 for speaking on costochondritis! I ended up at hospital one night a few years ago, thinking it was a heart attack. Several months later, sudden issues with my gallbladder, to the point where I could barely eat protein without feeling sick. A million tests later, no gallstones, no real explanation from any specialists, no reasons really for anything and all I can say is that this all coincided with the beginning of my perimenopause. I now have supplements such as your Gallbladder formula, and I can finally feel like a normal person, but thank you for actually talking about this very condition, because not many people know much about it. 🇦🇺
TY Dr berg🙏🙏
Glad to help!
Dr u r great...love u lot
Glad to be an inspiration.
Thank you 🙏🏾
Very glad to be of help, thanks for watching!
Yes sir, couple of years back i was admitted to hospital for shortness of breathing and intense Heart ache with sweating. After some test they found nothing and later they found out that i have panic disorder and rare obsessive Compulsive disorder which caused these pain.
'Thank You' Dr Berg.., that explains alot to me. Much Appreciated! ❤ I too get pain to my top half off my left arm.
if left hand getting numb and you got pain centrer of the chest a bit rigth from where heart is . and also discomfort in the back or electical small sharp pains thats the heart
Happy to know that you found the information useful.
Hey Doc, you left out esophageal spasms. I get them from time to time. They come at random. I went to the Hospital a couple of times thinking it was heart related. I can feel it coming on and it seems to be the spinster muscle at the lower end of the esophagus. I can now tell what's going on and I have learned to make the pain go away by "resetting" the muscle. The pain can otherwise go on for minutes. I reset the spinster muscle by swallowing something. Liquid doesn't work it has to be something that need to be chewed. Usually the first swallow does it and you can feel the muscle relax and the pain goes away.
Bonjour,, tellement passionnant '' 'vous êtes formidable et généreux de transmettre pour nous aider... Mais please en français 🍀🙏
I share your videos so much. I am amazed at how many people won't help themselves and dismiss the fact that they could with diet, trace minerals and Dr. Berg. You've helped me sooooo much since I landed on your channel 3 months ago. Thank you so much.
Hello! I'm happy to know that you found the post useful. Thanks for sharing.
@@Drberg you've given me back quality of life. I'm never without your Trace minerals. So appreciated!!
This is the kind of guidance I needed! I have been presenting almost daily chest pain on the left side since April 2021, all around my chest, up to my left shoulder and sometimes behind my arm on the armpit area. Electrocardiograms, x-rays, breast ultrasound, all appeared well and docs in my city can't seem to find anything wrong. I got covid three times and they told me maybe it's the virus aftermath but no-one has ever tell me why exactly the pain appears. I was scared it was something heart or lungs related and didn't know which specialist I should go to but I had no idea it could be due to digestive system issues! My mom is celiac and has a ton of other digestive problems, at last now I know which direction to start looking for a diagnosis, hopefully! Thank you so much! I love your videos, they are easy to understand and very educational 🥰
I am having something similar, 40 fit unvaxxed but just got covid for a second time. Left chest pain, and ribcage under armpit. Had Echo, EKG, chest xray , nothing.... Have you found any answers?
@@wattsobx Make sure to obtain and read the reports on all the scans/tests performed. I was hospitalized for COVID 7 days just oxygen and meds. I had my discharge papers and saw I had a hiatal hernia which I was told. I read the notes but didn’t read them. Well 2 years later having breathlessness and chest pinches here and there and some minor pain in armpit area. I went to ER for this. I received discharge notes and was told nothing on the EKG or chest X-ray but the ultrasound picked up mild gallbladder sludge. So recently I decided to read over my hospitalization notes from 2021 and saw where it was noted I have small Cardiomegaly. Had to look it up (enlarged heart). Then decided to request notes from ER visit to see because I saw some repeat information on my take home ER notes from my hospitalization and wanted to see if there was a more detailed summary. Well there it was again and the Dr in ER never told me anything as well as “fatty liver “ notation. It’s just all unbelievable. I had to go to the EE twice when I had Covid. Was told my oxygenation (while resting) was fine sent me home with antibiotics and 5-day steroid treatment. After the 5 days I wasn’t better. The PA on duty said she walks all of her patients and sure enough when she did my O2 levels started to drop.
@@wattsobx I'm having the same symptoms. I've been to a heart doctor and no problems. I had to a lung doctor this week. I hope you're feeling better. Did you find a reason why it's happening?
When my first love left me for someone else I had chest pains because she broke my heart .
Today at my age it’s mostly gas .
On a serious note these are good things to know .

Hi Doctor Berg, can you do a video on Oxidative Priority please? And also don't forget Dercum's Disease which I personally suffer with, what can I do to help myself deal with a disease that even the medical profession have little knowledge of? Thanks in advance you are a lifesaver Doc - literally!

Dr berg please make a detailed video on cortisol
I have an LBBB so I get really paranoid when I have chest pain...but I have some knots in my back that cause tightness which causes the cartilage around my sternum to pull a bit and then recently I changed my diet a lot and have some acid reflux. Whenever I feel something I just see if exercise can take my mind off it and when that works I know it's nothing serious. My heart rate will drop over 50 bpm in less than a minute after exercising, so surely my heart can't be too bad.
I remember one time I had kinda extreme chest pain probably caused by an unfortunate combination of drinking and sudden laughing… the intensive pain was (if I remember correctly) more or in the chest center. I had short breathing and if I tried taking a deeper breath the already moderate pain intensifies extremely and breathing out loosened it… All in all, after a few minutes the whole pain disappeared on it’s own… Till today I don’t know what that was.
Thank you for the video Dr. Berg.
I am diagnosed with depressive Anxiety disorder. I don't directly have panic attacks I often have breathing problems, chest pressure and extra systols( I don't know if that's the correct English word for it). I'm seeing a therapist. But do you eventually have some tips for me to deal with those symptoms? And is it normal that these symptoms can feel so real and intense?
Thank you for your time!
Same here. Great question.
Look into Buteyko breathing. It sounds like you have a dysfunctional breathing pattern.. fixing it will greatly alleviate anxiety

I had a really serious episode of hypochondia last year. And the upper left side of my chest was aching constantly. I was still unable to convince my unconsciousness that I was fine despite various checkups. Now it is a lot better but I guess sometimes only time can heal you.
It actually happened to me that I thought I had an angina, while doctors confirmed that I don't have a heart prob. I assume now the gallbladder was the prob. Thanks as always Dr Berg 😊🌸

My chest pains stopped after I watched your lard video. I used to use massive amounts of peanut oil in my food and it was causing me not only chest pains but I felt like I had pain in my leg veins and arm veins and abdomen. I felt like my heart was having trouble pumping that sludge through my veins. It was counterintuitive for me because everyone knows lard is terrible for you and vegetable oil is the best! Or so i thought. Then I switched to lard and all of the pain went away. I couldn't figure out why my heart was having trouble because I am in reasonably good shape... I exercise and eat well. Thanks to you, Dr. Berg another success story! I'm already on Berg team recommending your health tips to my friends! :)
Do you have any information on how to help with nerve damage? And also any tips on how to shrink down or firm out excess skin would be useful.

Excellent information. Just for info, my brother died of Aortic Dissection/rupture which is a very rare condition. He experienced chest pain and once fainted. Doctor ruled that out as a digestion problem. He experienced that problem again and it was too late when doctors finally diagnosed the root cause, which was the ruptured artery. Take care of yourself. And thanks to Dr. Eric Berg for such detailed, in-depth information at no cost to everyone.
Glad you mentioned Vitamin D!
A few years ago- post chemo-
I was having chest/heart “discomfort”.
Cardiologist put me through the ringer.
Results were that my Vitamin D level was 13 ng. I started 5000iu daily.
NOTE My FORMER internist doesn’t “routinely” check Vitamin D.
My NEW internist just bumped me up to 5000 iu TWICE a day.
I’ve viewed most of your videos, surprised not one time here is mentioned Potassium even in comments. Was woke 3:30 am heart beating 180+. After 4 hrs searching, it was a Dr Berg video reminded me I was low in Potassium. I did quick fix with Cream of Tartar and all good in 10 min. Even the ache in my chest gone which was from the pressure of it beating so hard. I’m almost 65, no medications, no shots, but any amount of stress can do a number. Love that you are such a genuine human to help so many. ❤️

You are a genius
I appreciate your support!
Hi Dr. Berg. I infrequently have chest pain on my right side of my chest yet I can't tell if it's coming from my nipple area indicating it could be breast cancer, a cyst, or inflamed lymph nodes, or under my ribs coming form my lung area. I'm a male and It's a throbbing pain which happens in "waves" and between 1-10 it's pain level often varies from around a level 2 to a level 9. Sometimes I think it's related to what I eat, then other times, no. Often times it's very dull and almost not noticeable unless I sit real still and then sometimes it prevents me from wanting to leave my room. I do have a lump in that area which I had a mammogram and ultrasound for in 2019, and after that appointment I received a letter in the mail telling me only that it was determined to be benign.
I'm in the process of getting an appointment to get it rechecked again and possibly have it removed. I'm hoping it's a liquid filled cyst and just needs to be drained with a needle as I've read about online, and maybe that will make the pain go away. I've had the mass under my right nipple since I was about 15(now 38) and although it isn't that much bigger it has slowly grown from about the size of a small grape to the size of a grape tomato. It is a little hard to tell though since I think I also have gynomastia. I have a little bit of the same thing on my left side but there has never been any pain in that area.
But again, I'm not sure if the pain is emanating from above or beneath the ribcage, so I often wonder if it's lung related like a Pulmonary Embolism. I was told no at the ER after they did a blood test and chest X-ray. I have Afib and high blood pressure which I take medication for. I went to the ER for pain and shortness of breathe in March but they told me my lungs and heart were fine and prescribed an inhaler for asthma, even though one of the doctors specifically told me it wasn't asthma.
Watch out! I was experiencing low blood (90/40) pressure back in December, and there was chest discomfort associated with it. I went to 3 hospitals and they let me go home every time with no definitive prognosis. I met up with a new Cardiologist and she found the problem: a Congenitally Defective Aortic Valve. My valve was bicuspid, and we found out through Open Heart Surgery that my valve was not only bicuspid (supposed to be tricuspid), but it had a 4-5mm hole in it. I successfully had my aortic valve replaced with a bovine valve. I’m 61 years old now and I’ve lost 150lbs on Keto (from 321lbs to 170lbs) and Dr. Berg was my greatest resource. I couldn’t have made it without losing the weight.
Was there a slight tightness that came and go when resting with slight pain
When you went to the hospital those 3 times did they do ct scans with contrast?
I really really needed this! Thank you so much dr. Berg
When I have chest pain I always think it's somenthing to do with heart and I get scared.
I think mine is related with stress and anxiety.

I'm not worried in the least though. I only notice because it's something I've not had before. It only lasts a moment. Not stressed in the least. Many thanks.

My first Covid shot aggravated my Psoriatic Arthritis and Psoriasis, which had been in remission for 10 years, medication free. I had done this with diet change but it's not holding up so well right now. Well, with the other complications (heart) with the shot had me a little freaked out because my arthritis is hitting me in the chest wall. I have had Costochondritis when I had my first child and I am pretty sure it's the same. I will pick up some bile salts...I would love some immediate relief!
