With this case report, we emphasize the unique fact that chest pain and discomfort in COVID-19 infected patient can be due to other causes and it should not be overlooked. The SARS-CoV-2 is a novel strain of coronavirus, the homo-sapiens have recently been attacked in a large number. Common clinical symptoms of COVID-19 patients infected include high grade fever, weakness, dry cough, breathlessness and chest pain with discomfort. We are presenting a case report of covid-19 infected patient having chief complaints of chest pain and discomfort. The patient was evaluated using computed tomography imaging and- Achalasia cardia was diagnosed and needful was done. It should be noted that multiple conditions can co-exist along with COVID-19 infection for which proper and complete evaluation needs to be done keeping other possibilities in mind.
