Chest Pain, Chest Heaviness, Cold And Pain, Post Shower Bath

The day after having a shower or a bath I start getting pains on the left side of my chest , going from the front through to the back. The left upper section feels painful & heavy inside. Its does not feel like the heart more as if its the branching section of the lungs.I usually take the shower/bath at night time and immediately after that I feel fine but the nest day I feel cold and the pains start.This lasts a few days. I am having towel baths every day to stay clean. The pains are getting worse everytime I shower/bath.
