Brief Answer:
Please get an ECG done

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome,

According to protocol, every chest pain should get an ECG done to rule out heart issues. So please visit a facility nearby where you can get it done urgently.

To get exact diagnosis, please describe the pain in detail like its exact location, how does it feel like, does it radiate to another area, does it worse on pressing the area with fingers, what previous medical conditions do you have, what medicines have you taken.

Regards,
Dr Vaishalee
