when you're not having a heart attack

Heart attacks are one of the major killers of men, felling more fellows than ladies each year. (Yet another drawback to being born male!) So it makes sense to remain vigilant to the signs of cardiac arrest. Sometimes, however, symptoms in your chest that seem just like heart failure can, in fact, be caused by a perfectly harmless condition. This Men's Health article details eight non-serious catalysts for chest pain, ranging from a can of Coke to constipation to an unfortunate encounter with the in-laws. After seeing so many fear-inducing health warnings out there, it's nice to read something telling you when NOT to worry.
