Hi,
Welcome.
The pain you are telling can be because of various causes.
It can be because of simple muscle pain or costochondritis.
But you need to evaluate yourself for the cardiac cause. I'll recommend you for a test called stress echo which is a wonderful test to rule out presence of any underlying cardiac disease. I'll also recommend you for a Chest X Ray. If they are normal than you need not to worry. Further treatment & future course of management will depend on above tests.
Thanks
