A member asked:
Im 17. last night i was laying with both arms resting behind me. after a few mins my arm began to ache. i got scared & my chest hurt. should i worry?

Likely not: At 17 I would be surprised if you have a coronary issue. In all likelihood the position you were in put a sheering force on the chest from the arms being under pressure behind your back.
