Brief Answer:
It's doesn't appear to be a serious condition
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Firstly to begin with, considering your age probability of heart disease is less and also all test which you underwent rules out serious issues like heart disease.
There are multiple causes of chest pain, first possibility is of gastritis and reflux disease, if you are smoker then can occur due to irritation of lungs or musculoskeletal like costochondritis if there is pain on pressure.
Do you also have upper abdominal pain, nausea, bloating, burping, increase in pain on food, sour water feeling in throat or chest burning, these are associated symptoms of reflux disease. Is there any history of neck trauma, neck pain? if yes get x ray cervical spine AP/ lat view.
You should avoid fatty, oily and spicy diet. Have some walk after having food instead of taking rest. Have multiple small meals instead of heavy meals. Avoid smoking and alcohol if any.
You should get prescribed tab Pan DSR 40 mg or esomiprazole domperidone combination beforebreakfast once a day for 2 weeks. If not adequately relieved with in a week, then you should add Syr sucral O or gelusil two teaspoon three times a day for a week.
Hope this helps you and get back if you have any doubts or more information to share.
