Noncardiac chest pain is defined as recurring pain in your chest — typically, behind your breast bone and near your heart — that is not related to your heart. In most people, noncardiac chest pain is actually related to a problem with their esophagus, most often gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).

Classically, cardiac chest pain is in the left chest. However, it may occur in the center or right chest. Non-cardiac chest pain may have many of the above symptoms. However, non-cardiac chest pain may change with respiration, cough, or position.
Typical (classic) angina chest pain consists of (1) Substernal chest pain or discomfort that is (2) Provoked by exertion or emotional stress and (3) relieved by rest or nitroglycerine (or both). Atypical (probable) angina chest pain applies when 2 out of 3 criteria of classic angina are present.
Other non-cardiac conditions causing chest pain could include shingles, inflammation of the chest wall nerves or cartilage of the ribcage, peptic ulcers or GERD, spasm of the esophagus and, rarely, inflammation of the pancreas or gallbladder.

Chest Pain ICD 10 general guidelines: 1 Documentation is the key to accurate coding of the chest pain. If the chest pain is due to any underlying condition and there is documentation of a confirmed diagnosis, the code for chest pain is not to be coded separately. 2 The alphabetic index needs to be referred first followed by the tabular list for accurate coding. 3 The default ICD 10 code for chest pain is R07.9 (Chest pain, unspecified). Any additional document specifying the chest pain will require a more accurate code from the following list.
Painful respiration – Discomfort or pain associated with inhalation and exhalation due to underlying causes such as infections, musculoskeletal injuries or heart problems .
This is one of the common type of chest pain seen in children and adolescents. Retrosternal pain – Pain behind the sternum or breast commonly caused due to gastrointestinal problems such as GERD.
Documentation is the key to accurate coding of the chest pain. If the chest pain is due to any underlying condition and there is documentation of a confirmed diagnosis, the code for chest pain is not to be coded separately.
Costochondral pain – Chest pain caused by the inflammation of the cartilage in the rib cage (Costochondritis) that mimics the pain caused due to a heart attack or other heart conditions. Chest wall syndrome – Stress or injury causing direct or referred pain to the chest wall.
Other less common causes are respiratory and cardiac conditions or tumors. Substernal pain – Pain below the sternum commonly caused due to gastrointestinal problems. Pleurodynia/Pleuritic chest pain/Pleuralgia – Severe sharp, gripping pain in the muscles between the ribs or in the diaphragm.
Chest tightness – This can be due to serious underlying cause s such as heart attack, asthma, pulmonary hypertension, ulcers, rib fracture or due to GERD, muscle strain.
