What Are The Episodes Of Sharp Pain In My Chest?

I reported to my doctor that I have had some pain in my right breast area I am a 45 year old Male and for the past few weeks I have been having shocks in that area sort of like the muscle stimulation machines only I dont use that just tried one years ago. the shocks last anywhere between 3 to 10 seconds and can repeat itself 2 or 4 times in a row. Any possibilities.

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
By your history and description, possibility of muscular cramps is more likely.
But better to rule out heart related diseases first. So get done ecg, 2d echo. If they are normal then no need to worry for heart diseases.
Calcium and vitamin d 3 deficiency commonly cause muscular twitching and cramps.
So get done calcium and vitamin d 3 levels and if Deficiency, you will need supplements.
Application of warm water pad on affected areas is Also beneficial.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
