Emotional pain=physical pain

Sometimes when you’re hurt emotionally , you feel physical pain in your chest. Why does that happen ? I’m looking for a scientific/medical explanation.

I think its called hunger; at least 20 of my lbs can be blamed on it.

Re: Emotional pain=physical pain

Broken heart syndrome is a temporary heart condition that’s often brought on by stressful situations, such as the death of a loved one. People with broken heart syndrome may have sudden chest pain or think they’re having a heart attack. In broken heart syndrome, there’s a temporary disruption of your heart’s normal pumping function, while the remainder of the heart functions normally or with even more forceful contractions.

Broken heart syndrome may be caused by the heart’s reaction to a surge of stress hormones. The condition may also be called takotsubo cardiomyopathy, apical ballooning syndrome or stress cardiomyopathy by doctors.

The symptoms of broken heart syndrome are treatable, and the condition usually reverses itself in about a week.
