Continue follow up: It ultimately comes down to obtaining the accurate diagnosis. It is good that your initial cardiac workup has been negative. I would encourage you to continue with your followup to make sure it is diagnosed and treated; still multiple possibilities.

Check with doctor: If NSAIDs, topical ice or heating pad do not help this pain, you should consult an orthopedist .
