Hello, Ive had on and off chest pressure for a few weeks.  It doesnt feel like pain but I guess it could be and doesnt move to other parts of body (on occasion I can feel it at the same point on my back.)  It is just constant pressure.  It doesnt usually last very long but it always seems to come back.  It is only on the left side around and above the nipple area.  Im 36yrs old, no health problems or family history of heart problems.  I had was layed off and had my first child a few days ago.  I am presuming this is stress or anxiety of some kind.  But Ive never had anything like this before so I figured Id ask.
Hi thanks for contacting Chat Doctor... You have constant chest pressure and radiating to back. . So to be on safer side investigate first with following investigations ....1. Blood pressure measurement2.ECG 3. Echo (if needed)4.Treadmill test If no cardiac cause present than no need for much worry .... It could be from stress if you are taking ... It could be muscular pain if any unaccustomed activity there .... Rest and analgesic need for it ... Consult pulmonologist with keeping my answer in mind... Hope your concern solved... Take care
