Hello
It is important to exclude cardiopulmonary causes in left sided chest pain.
It may also be due to musculo-skeletal causes.
You may need clinical examination and investigations like routine hemogram,random blood sugar,liver function test,renal function test,lipid profile,ultrasound of abdomen,ECHO,ECG in all leads,TMT,chest X-ray(PA view).
Proper treatment depend upon findings.
Get well soon.
