I'm no doctor, but I have had extensive Health training/education...but again I'm NOT a doc. I do know that w/d can cause heartburn which can show up in many forms beyond just acid in the throat. It can have symptoms similar to heart problems....chest pains, arm/neck/shoulder/back pains, sick stomach. I'd definitely have it checked out. Anytime anyone goes through a w/d/detox a physicians assistance is always a good idea. Blood pressure should be checked & blood tests should be done. As for his cold....he should take a daily tonic of 2 TBL of Raw Apple Cider Vinegar in about 8 ounces of water or juice twice daily. That helps level the body's pH levels and makes it a bad environment for viruses and bacteria (JUST the bad kind). Just a little advice to make his cold better! ;o)
if it dosent go away get to the E/R chest pain is nothing to mess with and detoxing puts a heavy strain on everything good luck and God bless.......Gnarly
although you can have pain all over the body and i'm not a dr here i would keep a "GOOD" eye on the chest pain gets any worse go to the ER
I would make him an appt to see the doctor. Hopefully it is nothing but it is better to be safe than sorry.
