Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you for asking!
I read your query and understood your concerns.

The pain isn't typical for serious life threatening situation. In most of the cases it's caused by muscle and skeletal issues, which are relieved with NSAID (advil).

However I would recommend to schedule for the following examinations to exclude any problem:
- Blood work
- Ecg
- Chest x-ray
- Cardiac echo

Hope this will be of help!
Wish you health!
