| | In the human body, the chest is the body region between the neck and diaphragm in the front of the body. | | | It is important to realize that the shape of the chest does not correspond to that of the bony thorax which encloses the heart and lungs; all the breadth of the shoulders is due to the shoulder girdle, and contains the axilla and the head of the humerus. | | | Contents of the chest include the heart, lungs, diaphragm, esophagus, trachea, aorta, superior vena cava, inferior vena cava, the shoulder socket containing the upper part of the humerus, nipple, scapula, pulmonary artery, sternum, xiphoid process, thoracic portion of the spine, major and minor pectoral muscles, trapezius muscles, collarbone, and mammary glands in hominids. |

| | Chest pain |
| | When faced with unexpected chest pain, it is normal for people to fear the worst, since chest pain is a symptom, which, to many people, means "heart attack." Nevertheless, chest pain can have many causes unrelated to the heart. | | | Stable angina (chest pain caused by temporary inadequacy of blood flow to the heart muscle) usually lasts 1 to 15 minutes and is provoked by exercise or stress and relieved by rest or nitroglycerin. | | | chest pain is associated with shortness of breath, an irregular pulse, sweating, dizziness, or if the pain is severe. |

| | Chest pain |
| | Inflammation of or trauma to the various components of the chest wall is a common cause of chest pain. | | | In this regard, it is worth noting that cardiac causes of chest pain are often accompanied by shortness of breath; but in contrast to many respiratory causes of chest pain and dyspnea, and with the exception of pericarditis, the pain of heart disease does not vary with breathing. | | | Because it is a subjective experience and difficult to quantify, epidemiological surveys of the prevalence of chest pain and physiological studies of its mechanisms are limited. |

| | Because your child is feeling pain in his chest, the doctor will first do a physical (pressing and feeling all around the child's chest) then listen to the chest with a stethoscope. | | | This way she can determine if the pain is coming from the chest wall (ribs, muscles or skin) or from the organs inside the chest like the lungs or heart. | | | This is called acute chest syndrome, and it causes severe pain. |

| | Chest Exercises |
| | When training to emphasize the chest, or more specifically the pectoralis major, the motion should allow the majority of the muscle fibers of the chest to be lined up against the resistance. | | | These factors increase chest involvement and prevent the front part of the shoulder, which is also a prime mover for this motion, from being emphasized. | | | Since the resistance is held in the hand during most chest exercises, decide whether the elbow will be stabilized in one position (fly) or whether the elbow will move as the shoulder joint moves (press). |

| | Chest Pain |
| | The most common origin of chest pain is chest wall pain--that is, pain arising from the bones, joints, muscles and nerves in the chest wall. | | | Any sudden, sharp pain in the chest accompanied with sudden onset of cough, shortness of breath, or palpitations, may indicate a serious condition such as a pneumothorax (hole in the lung) or a pulmonary embolus (blood clot in the lung). | | | It may be caused by straining the chest, as when coughing or sneezing, or doing push-ups or other activities. |
