What Causes Sharp Pain In Left Side Of The Chest?
ok the other day, I was walking down the hallway and stopped in front of my locker. All of a sudden, I felt sharp pains from left side of my chest to the beginning of my side. The pains happened 2 seconds in between. I was just curious what it may be.

Thanks for your question on HCM.
Sudden left sided chest pain on walking (exertion) is mostly seen in cardiac cause.
So I advice you to consult cardiologist and get done
1. ECG
2. 2D Echo
3. Troponin I level in blood.
4. Coronary Angiography if something is found in above tests.
So better to consult cardiologist and discuss all these.
