Suggest Treatment For Chest Pain

I have been having a little bit of chest pains for nearly 2hrs now, kind of more of a tightness. I just feel a little funny, but then again I cannot sleep and have been up for nearly 24hrs. I'm worried that I might be experiencing a heart attack but wanted to know what the likliness is for a 28 year old? Also, I had a chest x-ray and an EKG done 2 weeks ago and they came back perfectly fine. Can it change that fast?

Heart attack for a 28 yrs old is not very common esp if you are not a smoker, you are active and not obese. It looks like musculoskeletal pain. You may take some pain killer, apply some local gel and take rest. If pain still persists, consult yor local doctor.
