What would cause a dull pain in the center of my chest?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Multiple issues: I would never advise ignorning mid chest pressure- jeart, lungs, GERD, chest wall irriation and many other factors must be evaluated. Call for an appointment in the morning or ER today if symtoms worsen.

BANG! BA-BOOM!: A .38 bullet or a butt from a bull ram. Or....at your age, depends on the circumstances. If you are healthy, exercise, don't do drugs or smoke and have a family history devoid of heart problems, then it's probably something minor, unless you fall out during activity. Otherwise, if the problem persists or gets worse over the next 1-2 weeks or you've had it that long-see your doctor for a full exam!
