If you're concerned see your doctor. It could be anything from gas to some form of angina, to something more serious. Don't be like the guy from Threes Company who waited too long to go see a doctor. It's probably nothing , but it's better to get things checked out then wait and worry and increase your stress by the unknown. You could at least call a consulting nurse, or if you're in school, see a school nurse and see what she says. Good luck. You could at least get your blood pressure and cholesterol checked. I would be on guard for any chest pain that lasts for more than one minute or that has any radiating qualities down your left arm, back or face.
