Chest Pain for 10 days
Posted , 7 users are following.
Hi I was diagnosed with Covid mid november. After day 11 of symptoms I started to feel better. Five days after this I started to get a persistant chest pain. It has now been 10 days with this chest pain and it has not gone away. I have been to the doctors and the hospital and my chest xray was clear, no blood clots and ecg was normal. It is really scary why this pain hasn't gone away. My blood pressure has also been high. The doctors told me not to come back unless I get a high fever or shortness of breath. Has anyone else been through the same thing? How long before it felt better? Also if you think this is causing longterm heart damage?

Hi ,Tiffany!
I'm in the same situation, just with few days lass than you. My pain is not just in chest, is moving on the back, reflecting on the ribs and feel numbnes on the left hand. I have been to the hospital and they told me everything is ok after more investigation. How do you feel now?

Hi Elena
Thank you for your response. I also get random aches and tingles down my left arm. I did have pain in my left shoulder which seems to be better. I am still having the chest pain. Does feel as intense but is still there. I hope you are starting to feel better. This chest pain is a scary symptom. Ive been taking lots of baths and doing some chest stretches to help relax.

Hi Tiffany,
Just following up on your condition. I am also dealing with similar issues. I tested positive 12/16, had about 10 days of mild symptoms, felt good for a few days then started to have this chest pain. I've been dealing with this chest tension/squeezing feeling for almost a week now, along with some random shoots of pain in my legs, arms and fingers that comes and goes. I also have what feels like a heavy heart beat and pulses throughout my body. No shortness of breath or any other symptoms.
My physician wont see me until I get a negative test result so its looking like a week out. Just wanted to see how other people faired with these issues.
Thanks,
Bud

If you have high blood pressure, stop ALL caffeine, and salt. If you're BP will not come down contact your doctor immediately. Yes, it can be damaging. Pain down your arm is concerning as well, and should be reported. God bless!

Hi, I recently tested positive for Covid and I also have had chest pain for around 5 days now. Did yours stop after a while?
