What Could Be The Cause For Severe Pain In The Left Side Of The Chest?

I just started with chest pain on the left side it’s been over an hour and it still hasn’t gone away. I don’t feel any shortness of breath, I don’t feel nauseous or any numbness in my arms back or jaw or neck. It’s just my left side of my chest.

Hello,

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

The pain in the left side of the chest can be related to cardiac issues.

An electrocardiogram is needed to exclude possible cardiac cause.

So, I suggest to go at the emergency room for further evaluation and specific treatment.

Hope my answer was helpful.

If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
