Chest pain accompanied by shortness of breath is concerning and warrants evaluation. See your physician and obtain a resting EKG & cardiac enzymes. If normal, the next step would be a treadmill stress test to evaluate coronary circulation & look for possible blockages. At your age a more likely possibility was coronary artery spasm. A cardiologist is best to evaluate,test&advise you.
