i completely understand your issue
first , if u smoke quit smoking now.
visit a pulmonologist he can evaluate your symptoms and will request for some simpke investigations like chest xray and will lead to a cause.
breathlessness with chest pain can be due to pneumonia , copd , cardiac diseases and many other causes .
he will prescribe you some analgesics like paracetamol and antibiotics like cefexime for a week . depending upon the cause he may prescribe some bronchodilators like deriphylline and some inhaled medications if needed
