Thanks for your question on HCM. It is quite common to have muscle pull during bad posture. So chest muscles can cause pain if some uncomfortable movement or position is there. Try to follow these for relief.
1. Avoid weight lifting and bad postures.
2. Avoid movement causing pain.
3. Take good painkillers with muscle relaxant.
4. Apply warm water during bath.
5. Wear chest belt to avoid movements causing pain.
