A member asked:
I experience slight pinching feeling in my chest on the left hand side just below the pectoral muscle. is this an indication of any heart problem?

It may be: costochondritis (inflammation of the cartilage between your rib and sternum), a blood clot in the lungs, acid reflux, a muscle injury, or heart problem. Go see a healthcare provider so they can sort that out for you. Thanks for trusting in HealthTap.
