Chest pain: When we evaluate the chest pain, we look at the duration of pain, precipitating events, how long, how often and any associated symptoms and other underlying medical problems and risk factor assessment. Pain may be from heart, musculoskeletal or referred pain, if the pain is a recurrent problem have yourself checked out.
