The person used to have the smartphone close at hand placed in the left-side breast-pocket. \n•\tWhat is the potential adverse health effects experienced?\nStrong and intense pain in the muscles around the heart and the esophagus/sphincter when swallowing liquids.

The person moved the smartphone to a side-pocket in the pants instead and after a couple of months (approximately three months), the pain started to decrease and after one year, the pain was gone.    \n•\tAny other info, doc, pics etc?\nThank you for providing an opportunity for people in other countries also to comment about this.
