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?

View allSo, I was wondering, while I was out trekking recently, my heart rate spiked up to 85% of what my target heart rate is, which is about 185 BPM. During this, I felt a bit of pain on the left side of my neck. Its kind of a pulsating ache, but not too intense, and it seems to improve when I rest. Is this something normal? Ive already done some tests like a blood test showing my cholesterol is in range, an ECG that came back normal with sinus tachycardia, and both an ECHO 2D and TMT that are normal. By the way, Im 26 years old. Can you shed some light on this?
Hello, based on your description, it sounds like you may be experiencing some muscle strain or tension in your neck, especially since the pain improves with rest. However, given your normal test results and age of 26 years, it is less likely to be related to any serious heart condition. To help with the mild pulsating pain in your left side of the neck, you can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen (Tylenol) as needed. Additionally, you can apply a warm compress to the area to help relax the muscles. Make sure to stay hydrated and practice good posture while trekking to prevent further strain on your neck muscles. If the pain persists or worsens, it would be advisable to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation

I'm still experiencing this pin-pointing chest pain even though my ECG was normal and my cholesterol level dropped from 207 to 140 after some diet changes. I also got a TMT done and it was negative. But now, the pain seems to be spreading to my left hand too. What could be causing this?
"Based on your symptoms and test results, it is possible that you may be experiencing musculoskeletal pain or nerve-related pain rather than a cardiac issue. You can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen for the chest and left hand pain. Additionally, you can use a muscle relaxant like Flexeril (cyclobenzaprine) to help with any muscle tension contributing to the pain. It is also important to continue following a healthy diet and lifestyle to maintain your cholesterol levels. If the pain persists or worsens, it would be advisable to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management."
