I'm really concerned about some pain I've been experiencing. It started about four months ago with chest pain and pain in my left arm. I went to a doctor who said it might be gastric issues, but I was worried so I saw a cardiologist. They did a chest X-ray, a TMT, and an echo 2D, and everything came back negative. My relative, who's a doctor, suggested it might be muscle pain or cervical spondylosis, but I still have this persistent pain in my left arm along with a burning sensation. I've read about anxiety causing these kinds of symptoms, but the pain is also in my neck, jaw, left arm, shoulder, and chest. I'm really hoping for some clarification on what might be going on. What could be causing these symptoms, and what should I do next?

View allI'm a 27-year-old male, and I've been having some pain on the left side of my chest along with pain in my upper back and sometimes in the left side of my neck. It's been a real mixed bagsometimes it's a dull ache, other times it's much worse. About a month ago, I had an ECG, ECHO, and TMT done, and everything came back normal. My lipid profile and high-sensitive troponin levels were normal too, and even my chest X-ray didn't show anything unusual. But this has been going on for the last 10 months now. I'm trying to figure out if this pain might be related to my heart, my lungs, a muscle issue, or maybe just gas. Should I think about repeating the heart-related tests, or what do you recommend as the next step?
"Based on your symptoms and the normal results of your previous heart-related tests, it is less likely that the pain is heart-related. The pain in your left chest, left upper back, and neck could be musculoskeletal in nature, possibly due to muscle strain or inflammation. It could also be related to gas or indigestion. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen and applying heat or ice to the affected areas. Additionally, practicing good posture and gentle stretching exercises may also provide some relief. If the pain persists or worsens, you may consider consulting a doctor for further evaluation. They may recommend physical therapy, muscle relaxants, or other medications such as ibuprofen for pain and inflammation. It is not necessary to repeat the heart-related tests at this point, given your recent normal results. However, if you experience any new or concerning symptoms, it is important to seek medical advice promptly."

I'm experiencing some mild chest pain around my ribs, both on the right side and the far left side of my chest. It's a bit worrying because when I walk for about 10 minutes, I start feeling really fatigued even though my oxygen level seems to be fine at 99. Should I be concerned about this?
