    Pain is an indication that something is wrong, and you should always get chest pain checked out as a priority.   Sometimes pain gets transferred so that you feel it somewhere else rather than where the cause of the problem is located.

    ​I think I would try taking Gaviscon to see whether that improves the heartburn as some of it might be reflux, possibly.   Also try some form of relaxation therapy.

    When you eat, does the food go down into your stomach OK?   Does the pain seem to be related to intervals after eating?

      hey Alan, food goes down fine no pain or anything, the chest and back pain come and go, doesn't really have too do with eating, I had blood work done everything is fine, I don't smoke but drink occasionally
