A member asked:
Can you tell me is it normal to suffer pains in the chest sometimes 3 years after a heart attack ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Chest pain can be from the heart, or other causes. After a previous heart attack, you should assume it is from the heart until proven otherwise. Check it out urgently. Today would be good. Hope this helps!

I've had right-side/sternum chest discomfort for the past three days after a panic attack. I can't tell if it gets worse with movement, it's just a dull ache that makes me anxious which leads to my heart pounding. Nerves or possible costochondritis?
