Chest pain ...: Chest pain can be confusing. We want to be sure the heart is not the source of the pain since it is potentially a lethal problem. However, there are many other causes of chest pain. You could have a strained muscle, a broken rib, an inflamed bursa, a pulmonary infection, or even a problem in your abdomen causing the pain. I suggest a trip to your family doc as a good starting place.
