I'm experiencing chest pain in the middle, and sometimes it feels like a pulsing sensation. It just started yesterday. Should I be worried about this? What could it mean?

Chest pain can have various causes, including heart problems, muscle strain, or digestive issues. Since chest pain can be a symptom of a serious condition, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. In the meantime, you can take over-the-counter pain relief medication like acetaminophen (e.g. Tylenol) at a dose of 500mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain. However, if the chest pain is severe or persistent, it is crucial to seek immediate medical help.
