Chest Pain

Chest pain and heart problems

The most common heart problems that cause chest pain include:

• pericarditis – which usually causes a sudden, sharp, stabbing pain that gets worse when you breathe deeply or lie down

• angina or a heart attack – which have similar symptoms but a heart attack is life-threatening

You're more likely to have heart problems if you're older or know you're at risk of coronary heart disease.

For example, if you:

• smoke

• are very overweight (obese)

• have high blood pressure, diabetes or high cholesterol

• have a history of heart attacks or angina in family members under 60 years old
