Specializes in Family Medicine

Neither am I: It is best to get l sided chest pain evaluated by a health care provider so cardiac (heart) causes can be ruled out, which would be the most serious cause of course. A history and physical will usually be able to differentiate between heart, lung, breast, etc. Best wishes.
