The first disease that should be considered as a burning pain in the chest is gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), also known as reflux esophagitis. The burning pain is caused by the reflux of stomach acid, which burns the lower part of the esophagus. If it is caused by reflux esophagitis, you can take acid-suppressing and gastric power-boosting drugs, and pay attention to a light diet, and most of the symptoms can be relieved gradually. In addition, the burning pain in the chest, also need to rule out intercostal neuritis, herpes zoster and myocardial infarction. In some patients with cardiac infarction, the early stage can show burning pain in the chest, then you can consider doing an electrocardiogram to rule out.
