Hello, If your symptom is because of muscle pain stretch exercises can be effective. However, it looks like Angina. Angina is the condition when the heart muscles get a reduced supply of blood flow to cause ischemia.  1. The patient may feel tightening(spasm) of the chest, pain or discomfort. 2. Pain/discomfort in the arms, neck or shoulders. 3. Shortness of breath. 4. Nausea & dizziness. Avoid smoking, alcohol or any kind of addiction. If diabetic maintain your blood sugar level to normal, maintain proper weight as per BMI. You are suggested to visit ER, get CBS, Urinalysis, ECG, Echocardiography, X-Ray chest done to rule out any developing CAD, coronary artery disease.  Get treated at the earliest. Your treatment will depend upon the diagnosis made(stable or unstable angina). Avoid taking larger meals, stay away from stress, exercise moderately. You may need medications. Take all medicines under your treating doctor. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Chat Doctor.
