What is Severe Chest Pain?
Severe chest pain is a serious symptom that can be alarming and may indicate problems related to the heart or other vital organs. When linked to heart conditions, chest pain may feel like pressure, tightness, heaviness, or squeezing, and it can sometimes spread to the arms, neck, jaw, or back.
Common heart-related causes of severe chest pain include:
- Angina, caused by reduced blood flow to the heart muscle
- Heart attack due to a blocked blood supply
- Heart rhythm disorders that affect the heart's regular beating pattern
Early medical evaluation is extremely important for chest pain related to the heart. Treatment depends on the cause and may include medications, lifestyle changes, or advanced procedures such as pacemaker implantation to stabilize heart rhythm and improve quality of life.
What Treatment did we provide to Katta Sriramulu at Medicover?

This procedure was recommended to regulate his heart rhythm and prevent further episodes of chest pain caused by electrical disturbances in the heart.
The treatment process involved:
- Comprehensive cardiac assessment to confirm the need for a pacemaker
- A small incision was made near the collarbone
