You should only revisit ER if that pain is associated with shortness of breath and diaphoresis (cold sweat). If no other symptom is present then you can just take tylenol or advil every 6 hours as needed for the pain for the next 24 hours. At your age, if coronary spasm is the cause of this recurrent chest pain, other symptoms should be present. I do not think your pain is due to heart disease.
