Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
By your history and description, possibility of musculoskeletal pain is more likely.
Esmoprazole is antacid and effective only in gastritis related chest pain.
Gastritis related chest pain is not on both side.
So I think you should stop Esmoprazole.
Apply warm water pad on affected areas of chest.
Take painkiller and anti inflammatory drugs like ibuprofen or acetaminophen.
Avoid movements causing pain. Avoid heavyweight lifting and strenuous exercise.
Wear chest belt.
You will mostly improve with all these in 5-7 days.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
