Hello
Welcome here.
You have chest pain which has no medical explanation or cause.
Such kind of symptoms can be due to somatoform disorder and mostly some stress is behind this.
Practice relaxation exercises like deep breathing and meditation. This will reduce your stress levels. These exercises also boost brain endorphin levels which are natural pain killers.
Hope this helps.
Thanks
