Angina Pectoris is the leading cause of pain in the left side of the chest that lasts a long time and is a treatable condition. There are other reasons for pain there and the person should see his or her general practitioner doctor. If the paid escalates go the the emergency room immediately. Call for an ambulance because the EMT professionals can make an assessment of the person's symptoms and begin treatment.

Can drinking Pepsi cause chest pains?

The most common cause of such "chest pains" would be due to esophageal refllux. However, in certain instances, especially in those individuals with significant cardiovascular risk factors or diagnosed coronary artery disease (for instance), caffeinated products (...and caffeine is a stimulant) can cause coronary artery spasm and angina. Therefore, if the chest pains are heavy, in the center of the chest (typically), and occur with numbness, pain or tingling of the jaw, shoulder, arm or hand, then it would be best to have this assessed emergently.
