I'm really worried because my husband keeps having this slight pain and tightness in the center of his chest. It's especially bothersome when he coughs or takes a deep breath during these episodes. It's not happening all the time, but I'm not sure if we should investigate heart problems or something else. There aren't any other symptoms to go off of. What should we do?

I'm a 25-year-old female and I've been having some chest discomfort along with feeling breathless. I'm also experiencing chills and sweating. Is this something normal, or should I be worried?

These symptoms could be indicative of a variety of conditions, including anxiety, panic attacks, asthma, or even a heart-related issue. It is important to seek medical attention for a proper evaluation and diagnosis. In the meantime, you can take a pain reliever like acetaminophen and try to relax in a comfortable position.
