Dear-thanks for using our service. I will try to help you with my medical advise. It can be anxiey , but other possibility is costochondritis or rib cage inflammation too. I advise you to try relaxation technique as yoga, do regular exercise and eat a healthy diet. You should see a doctor for an evaluation and electrocardiogram to make sure that you are not suffering an underlying cardiac problem.
I hope that my advise has been helpful
