See a doctor: You may be having chest pain and you need an ekg as well as labs (troponins), and an echo stress test. See your cardiologist or go to an er. They can also check you for lung or rib cage problems if this is not acute and has been going on a long time, you may be having anxiety. Always know all pain is exagerated if you have anxiety. You will need treatment regardless of which diagnosis you have.
