Chest pain in patients with cor pulmonale may be traction pain caused by inflammatory infection, or it could result from factors such as pre-existing hypertension or coronary heart disease. It is recommended to promptly visit a正规 hospital and undergo examinations such as CT scan and electrocardiogram (ECG) to determine the exact cause of the symptoms, followed by active treatment under medical guidance.
