What Causes Pain In Left Side Of Chest Post Accident?

I lost control of my bicycle last Wed. night and crashed down on my left side. I was badly bruised but what is worse is the pain that started on Sunday night after working to put a picture up on the wall. Now I am getting pain in the left chest area that is spasaming. I think I may have pulled a muscle in the chest cavity. I just want to know if my heart is OK, I don t want to have a bruised heart as I came crashing down and folded my right side onto my left side very hard. I am 58 yrs old, F and 5 2 175.

Welcome to healthcare magic. Your pain looks like muscular origin. Use local application of pain relief cream. Take painkiller medicine. Do you have any heart disease? It doesn't look like to be related to heart.
