What Are The Causes Of Having Pain While Laying Down On Stomach, Pain In Chest And Pressure In Sternum?
Lately I have been laying down on my stomach to take naps during the day. However, I don't sleep long and when I wake up I have a dull pain in my chest. It is more so like my sternum and feels almost like a pressure like it is getting crushed or pushed in. What could be causing this?

Hi,
From history it seems to have myalgia but from symptoms possibility of having cardiac ailment should be ruled out.
Go for EKG and blood pressure check up.
Consult your doctor and get examined.
Ok and take care.
