For some time I thought what I was having was heart burns until I looked up the internet.
The burning pains starts jolting from the neck glans and around adams apple, traveling down respiratory pipe eventually into the chest area making it hard to breathe. I have not taken any medications as I'm not sure what is causing this. I've learnt to deal with it by drinking 1 litre or more cold water and taking long and heavy breathes and staying calm for 30minutes during the attacks.
I also realised a pattern. The pains appear a few days after I've heard anger bursts outs or busy work schedules. Can anyone help me understand if its a disease or just stress related problem and whether its harmful or not.
This may not be any help to you, but it could either be a heart condition, the virus that is going around, or something like an infection in your trachea. Hope this is some help to you! :)
