Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have persistent pain in left chest . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like heart attack , angina , acid reflux , disorders of the esophagus
, viral bronchitis , bruised ribs , sore muscles and panic attack . I would suggest you to consult cardiologist to rule out more serious condition and for test like troponin t test , TMT , complete blood profile and check vitals . Doctor may prescribe isosorbid nitrate , betablockers , frusamide , sedatives and aspirin . Doctor may also refer you to gastroenterologist for acid reflux or chest specialist for chest problem . For now take proper rest , take light and non spicy food and do not exert your body .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
