Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
By your history and description, possibility of musculoskeletal pain is more.
But since it is left sided chest pain, better to first rule out heart diseases.
So get done ecg and 2d echo.
If both are normal then no need to worry for heart diseases.
Musculoskeletal pain is more likely in your case.
So follow these steps for better symptomatic relief in musculoskeletal pain.
1. Avoid movements causing pain.
2. Avoid bad postures in sleep.
3. Avoid heavyweight lifting and strenuous exercise.
4. Apply warm water pad on affected areas.
5. Take painkiller like ibuprofen.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these. But first rule out heart diseases.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
