A member asked:

When i exercise i have no chest discomfort. after exercise i have left side tightness. have mvp. had two negative nuclear stress tests. why after?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Chest pain: You may have a postural problem while you exercise causing unbalanced stress on your chest wall producing the post exercise discomfort. The negative stress tests suggest a low probability your heart is involved.
