Welcome to HCM. What is your age..? What is your working pattern..? Left side chest pain should always be rule out immediately. Go for blood pressure measurement and complete cardiac check up to rule out cardiac involvement and start treatment accordingly under guidance of your physician. Keep in touch with your doctor.
Chest wall pain means pain is related to muscles of chest. It can be presumed that this is diagnosed after proper clinical examination and investigations.
You didn't mentioned your age.
Chest pain should be taken seriously.
Investigations include routine hemogram,RBS,LFT,RFT,Lipid profile,Chest X-ray (PA view),ECG in all leads,ECHO should be done.
Get well soon.
