I've been having this pain on the left side of my chest and it's also in the inside part of my left shoulder, going to the back as well. It's weird because it's not the whole chest, just specific points. Sometimes the pain even jumps to my right side for a few seconds. I've been keeping an eye on my blood pressure and it's been 80120. Should I be worried about this or is it something that will pass on its own?

Based on your description of chest pain localized to specific points and radiating to the back, it is important to rule out any cardiac issues. However, given your age and blood pressure reading, it is less likely to be related to the heart. This type of pain could be musculoskeletal in nature, such as muscle strain or inflammation. I recommend taking over-the-counter pain relief medication such as Acetaminophen 500mg as needed for pain relief. Additionally, applying a warm compress to the affected areas and practicing gentle stretching exercises may help alleviate the discomfort. If the pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

Can extreme fear and stress lead to a heart attack or cardiac arrest in someone under 25, even if they don't have a history of heart problems? I'm really curious because I've been feeling super overwhelmed lately and it worries me.

Extreme fear and stress can trigger a condition known as Takotsubo cardiomyopathy, also called "broken heart syndrome," which mimics symptoms of a heart attack. In young people below 25, the risk of a heart attack or cardiac arrest due to extreme fear and stress is very low. However, it is important to manage stress and anxiety to maintain overall heart health
