Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
You are having left sided chest pain on exertion (walking).
So we should first rule out heart diseases.
So get done blood pressure monitoring, ecg, 2d echo and stress test.
If all these are normal then no need to worry for heart diseases.
Sometimes bronchitis can also cause similar kind of pain.
So also get done PFT (Pulmonary Function Test).
You may need inhaled bronchodilators (formoterol or salmeterol).
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
