Option A would be wrong. "He's not coming tomorrow". Tomorrow is future tense and isn't coming is present continuous then how could we club both? It would be "He won't come/won't be coming tomorrow".

@Vertika.
"a severe headache" uses 'severe' as a supporting word but in the case of using "a pain" we don't find any such supporting word so I think its the wrong usage here.

Option C. "and he has to see a doctor".
"Pain" can be both "countable" and "uncountable". If you are referring to a "specific pain" then the "countable form" is more likely.

"a pain " is a wrong usage. And one should 'consult' a doctor, but not to see a doctor.
Example: Chest PAIN, you should CONSULT a doctor.

I feel both b and c are wrong.
b- should be " as he is having a chest pain"
c- should be " has to consult a doctor"
b- should be " as he is having a chest pain"
c- should be " has to consult a doctor"

B should be the answer as there is only one type of pain and as it is mentioned chest pain so no need of writing 'the' before chest pain.

Option C can only be that is given as its answer.
Rest all is correct. "a pain" is correct.
For eg. I am having "a" severe headache.

"a pain: is wrong usage. It should be "pain in the chest". I dont think, we can use an article(a, an, the) with pain.

I think that in option B at the place of "as" we have to use "because".
Because he is having a pain in the chest.
Am I correct?
Because he is having a pain in the chest.
