AskHello doctor!
Last month, I had symptoms of chest pain accompanied by shortness of breath, the left chest felt sharper than the right one. Because I was worried, I went to the doctor and was assigned to perform an electrocardiogram and blood test, the results were normal. The doctor explained that because she was doing heavy work, she had muscle pain and prescribed pain relievers. When I got home, I put some medicine on it and put on more oil and it felt better. However, for two weeks now, I have had angina pectoris, no difficulty breathing, chest pain and gradually spread down to the ribs. My left breast hurts more, I applied medicine but it still didn't help. In addition, I also have digestive problems, I have indigestion, heavy stomach with diarrhea.
I am currently living and working in Japan, due to language difficulties and the epidemic, I also limit going to the hospital. Please advise me what is my medical condition? What is the cause? Thank you sincerely.

Hello!
Chest pain is a common symptom in heart and lung diseases. At your age it is rare to have physical disease of the heart and lungs unless you have congenital heart disease (disease in the womb).
If the symptoms of chest pain occur transiently, come and go on their own, you do not need to worry too much. However, in case the chest pain makes you uncomfortable, affects your life and activities, and especially when the symptoms increase, you should see a cardiologist again. Good health!
