Chest pain

[Someone here]

I stopped smoking for few months now. But I still feel burning sensation in my chest  (lungs) and heart area... Especially after eating spicy food. I'm not sure if its because of my smoking habit or what.

Consider getting checked for chronic gastritis  or acid reflux.  smokers (even ex smokers) often have compromised stomach lining integrity so it could be more sensitive to spices and acidic foods

Does this also extend to people who vape?

yes, sounds like acid reflux.
