Hello,

The pain you describe is very likely muscular due to its nature (being prick type of pain). Heart pain would be like heaviness in most of your chest or tightness and is generally related to exercise (worse with exercise)

Because the ECG and all the rest of the tests are normal this is another thing that reassures us that very likely your heart is healthy.

Sometimes anxiety as well can cause strange sensation in the chest and pain and also muscular chest pains.

I hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Antoneta Zotaj,
