Am a smoker and i've been having some pinching feelings in my chest.. can u give me some answers on what it could be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Smoking : You answered your own question. Stop smoking and you're pain will most likely go away. See your doctor for chest pain, especially if you're a smoker and the problem is new.
