I've been having chest pain for the past few months, and sometimes it's on the left side as well. I've noticed it in my left hand too. It kind of comes and goes on its own. Could you suggest what might be going on or what steps I should take?

I'm experiencing some sudden pain on the left side of my chest and leg, specifically around the knee, and I'm not sure what's going on. The pain tends to come and go, and it's been like this since yesterday. There's no pain in my hand, just the leg and chest. Do you have any advice or know of any tablets I could take to help with this?
"Based on your symptoms of sudden chest pain and left leg pain, it is important to rule out any serious conditions such as a heart attack or blood clot. However, if the pain is intermittent and not severe, it could be musculoskeletal in nature. I recommend taking Tablet Acetaminophen 500mg for pain relief. You can take 1 tablet every 6 hours as needed for chest and leg pain. Make sure to rest and avoid any strenuous activities until the pain subsides."

I had COVID back in May 2021 and was in quarantine. Things were normal until late August when I started having a cold and got treated with antibiotics. After finishing the antibiotics, I noticed this slight pain on the left side of my chest while breathing deeply, as well as pain in my left hand. It's not sharp anymore, just a constant feeling. My chest X-ray came back normal, but the ECG showed Sinus Tachycardia, and sometimes my heart rate spikes. I'm 26, recently quit smoking, and I'm worried if this could be something like COPD or lung cancer. I can hold my breath for over a minute and can exhale in about 15 seconds, so I'm not breathless. But I'm really anxious, my hands and feet get sweaty, and there's this skin issue on my lower foot which makes me think about hyperthyroidism. Could you help me understand what's going on? I'm seriously worried.
no its neither copd or cancer
