He will not come tomorrow as he is having a pain in the chest and he has to see the doctor.

Here the right answer should be b as.
Sentence given to us - as he is having 'a' pain in his chest.
Hence the correct answer won't have an 'a' as it can't be used before pain.
(as he is having pain in his chest).
Sentence given to us - as he is having 'a' pain in his chest.
Hence the correct answer won't have an 'a' as it can't be used before pain.
(as he is having pain in his chest).

"a pain" is wrong. 'a' cannot be used before uncountable.
"see doctor" is also wrong. It should be "consult doctor".
"see doctor" is also wrong. It should be "consult doctor".

Having relates to eating, so how can having be correct?

"c" should be the answer in a manner that " has to show to a doctor."

"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.
Example: Chest PAIN, you should CONSULT a doctor.

@vertika: In your sentence, the is used before "severe" and not before pain. So " a pain ", I believe is not correct.
