thank you for writing me,
you have some chest enlarged lymphnode that may be major cause of your chest pain , it is also associated with large kidney and spleen so it may be possibility of sarcoidosis , and also if there is epidemic of tubrcuosis in your area then tuberculosis is also possibility,

two things you can do to rule out in between them
1. EBUS endobronchial ultrasound and FNAC OF lymph node
2 . blood investigation (level of ACE , serum ANA , RA factor and ofcourse CBC LFT KFT )
THIS WILL HELP YOU TO REACH YOUR DIAGNOSIS

ITS NOT JUST TO SUBSIDE PAIN , TRY TO SUBSIDE DISEASE

THANK YOU
