Dear patient,
Thanks for your health concerns. Although a heart attack is rare in your age group, you did have a recent surgical repair and thus you should probably be examined by a provider, either your family physician or an internist; they may order other tests such as an EKG if needed. Common things being common, it may just be a muscle strain.
Truly yours,
