65 years. had a fall in wc. pain in left chest going to shoulder. xray ok. which specialist to contact for this? is this a ligament issue or muscle?

Start with your PCP: I assume the xray was done in the ER or UC If you have not seen your primary health care provider, start there. then the approp referral can be done if necessary.
