Can back problems cause chest pain?

by MARSIN, Jun 11, 2008 12:44AM
I was at the doctor awhile ago and he told me that i need to get my back cracked and that it might fix my chest pain. I have PVCs and sleep apnea and sinus tachycardia. I am currently in the army and deployed and I do walk around with alot of weight on my back. I am 21 years old and I have chest pain but im in shape and supposedly back cracking will help. has anybody heard of this? can all the pain be caused by my PVCs which im not too sure if i notice them going on, but my sleep test proved it...

Yes...back problems can cause chest pain.  My husband was told the same thing after a thorough workup.  Sounds wacky, but believe it or not, after going to the chiropracter...his chest felt better.  Go figure?!?!?!?!

:-)

Good days to you.  Stay safe.
