Hello,
Thanks for your query.
Chest pain can be caused by various reasons, including minor problem such as indigestion or stress, to serious medical emergencies such as a heart attack.
The symptoms as well as the history mentioned in your post suggest that it might be due to strain of the chest muscles.
Symptomatic relief can be obtained by application of analgesic gel & intake of muscle relaxants.
Other causes of chest pain include:
1. Angina
2. Chest muscle injury
3. Costochondritis
4. Peptic ulcer disease
5. Pain from the digestive tract, such as esophageal reflux
So, it will be better to consult a Doctor & get a physical examination done to rule out other causes.
Investigations like X XXXXXXX of Chest and Electrocardiogram can be helpful in ruling out the Respiratory & Cardiovascular causes.
Appropriate management steps will be taken based on complete history, physical examination & co-relating the findings with investigation reports.
Wishing you a Good Health.
Let me know if I need to clarify further.
Thanks & take care.
