Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. No need to worry about this pain or go to ER (emergency room). By your history and description, possibility of musculoskeletal pain is more because you are having chest pain on movements. So follow these steps for better symptomatic relief in musculoskeletal pain. 1. Avoid movements causing pain. 2. Avoid bad postures in sleep. 3. Avoid heavyweight lifting and strenuous exercise. 4. Take painkiller like ibuprofen. 5. Apply warm water pad on affected areas. Don't worry, you will be alright with all these in 5 days. If not improving then consult doctor and get done ECG to rule out heart diseases. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
