It is time to see...: See a doctor. Chest tightness, chest pain, shortness of breath can be due to minor problems or to very serious ones. An ER doctor can check to see what might be going on. Sometimes tests and chest x-rays will be done. Possible causes include angina, heart attack, partial pneumothorax (collapsed lung), asthma, esophagitis, reflux, arrhythmias, etc... One should not wait around with such symptoms.
