Heartburn and heart palpitations
Heartburn is caused by acid reflux and is not related to the heart. It gives rise to burning pain in the chest which feels very much similar to a heart attack pain and can be difficult to differentiate.
It is necessary to always consult the doctor if you are experiencing GERD and chest discomfort symptoms by doing exercise, which manifests as a heart condition.
In case of chest pains, if you are unsure about its source, then see your doctor. If symptoms like chest tightness, sweating, weakness, and fainting persist then head to an emergency room.
