A member asked:

I have a tickle sensation on my left side of my chest close to my heart should i worry about it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not serious: This symptom appears to be due to some irritability of a superficial nerve in your chest wall and doesn't seem significant or related to the heart or lung. See your Physician if you have further concerns or if there is a lump,tender spot or skin lesion.
