Suggest Remedy For Mild Anxiety And Chest Pains
Hi I'm 18 years old and suffer from mild anxiety. From time to time I get a sharp pain on the left side of my chest, much like a stitch from running, that makes it painful to inhale. It goes away after a few seconds, and usually occurs when I'm resting, but stretch or bend funny. What could this be?

As you stated that you frequently suffer from anxiety therefor in your case this can be due to sudden anxiety or panic attacks which lead to such condition but that must be evaluated by a psychiatrist before labelling you as a case of this issue
