What Causes Squeezing Feeling In The Chest?
I am a 15 year old girl (5 1 , 95-100 lbs). I don t get much caffeine intake and I don t smoke, drink, etc. I m not overweight in the slightest. I m not the most fit though. Tonight as I was laying here in bed about to fall asleep I felt this light squeezing feeling in my chest. It only lasted for a second and I can t pinpoint where in my chest. What is this? Is it my heart or is it the muscles in my chest? *For more background info... I do have weekly massages for my extremely tight muscles (I m a musician) and my therapist worked those muscles a lot more than usual last week. I also have been having lots of anxiety and panic attacks lately.

Hi,
It is not a heart issue.
Most probably it is a muscle pain, especially if you have underlying problems. Also could be a gastric pain.
Take care
