Detailed Answer:
Hello!

Welcome to Ask a Doctor service!

Based on your description, we can not conclude if this is a heart attack or just a musculoskeletal pain.

I would like to know more about your chest pain:

- Where is the pain located?
- Is it like stabbing, or burning sensation or like squeezing?
- Is the pain triggered by changes in body position or deep in?

I would like to know your age and your past medical history.

A resting ECG would help exclude any possible heart issues.

I remain at your disposal for any further questions whenever you need!

Kind regards,
Dr.Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
