Dear lybrateuser, - The pain in your chest could be due to inflammation, injury to the esophagus(the foodpipe which connects the oral cavity to the stomach) due to acid reflux or heartburn, there may be othercauses also like narrowing, infection by virus, bacteria - take some precautions - chew your food well, have semisolid food like dal, khichdi, kanji, soup, milk for a few days, avoid solid foods, do not skip meals, have meals on time, do not lye down for at least 2 hrs after meals, have dinner 2-3 hrs before bedtime - avoid tea, coffee, alcohol, tobacco, if you take, also spicy, fried, acidic food, peppermint to be avoided - take syrup Gelusil, 2 teaspoonful half an hour after every meal three times a day - if not much improvement then get upper GI endoscopy done to find out exact cause, consult a doctor.
