What Causes Sharp Chest Pain On Left Side?
Hi I have been having a sharp and stinging pain in my chest more towards the centre left side of my chest, it comes and goes, but usually lasts for a few seconds.I have had an ecg done and tests and it has nothing to do with my heart, I also had a pneumomediastinum with a slight pneumothorax about 2 years ago, I had an xray done recently to see if it was back but nothing came up. I am also 20 years old

Hello Welcome to Health Care Magic.
Don't worry much. Stay calm.
It can be just gastritis. As you have done all reports and all of them are normal I suppose it should be plain gastritis which can have similar symptoms. try to avoid spices and oily food. maintain the regularity in timings of having food. Do not eat late night. Even maintain proper hydration.
Hope this information helps you.
Best wishes.
