Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, we should first rule out heart related chest pain because your pain is on left side.
So consult cardiologist and get done
1. Blood pressure monitoring
2. Ecg
3. 2d echo
4. Stress test (trade mill test).
If all these are normal then no need to worry for heart diseases.
Sometimes uncontrolled stress and anxiety can also cause similar symptoms.
So better to consult psychiatrist and get done counselling sessions.
Try to identify stressor in your life and start working on it's solution.
You may need anxiolytic drugs too.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
