HI

Thanks for posting your query.

Pinch in the chest region could be due to Acidity or muscle irritation. I don't suspect any heart problem at your age.

Just eat food at right time and avoid spicy and non veg food. Drink plenty of water .

Regarding whether you need to take medicine for blood pressure , I would advice not to take as it is marginally high. Start doing aerobic exercise like Brisk walking, Jogging , running , cycling or swimming for at least 15 minutes a day.

Recheck your Blood pressure after 2 months and if it is still 140/100 or more you need to start the medicine.

Hope this was useful to you.
Any clarifications feel free to ask .

Regards.
