Hello doctor! About a month ago, I had short-term chest tightness. That is, in a week there will be any few days, during the day, only a few minutes. I have a stabbing pain in my left chest. Breathing is normal. The extremities function normally. No dizziness. Can you please advise on how to reduce this situation? Looking forward to consulting your doctor. Thank you.
