i have been having chest pains for the past 2 months now and im only 17. i have been to the doctors 6 times. the first couple of times they said it was muscle pain but the tablets never worked. next time i went back he said it was deffenatly not my heart and that made me less worried because ive had panic attacks over this. i went again because i was scared and to calm me down he gave me an ecg test and it came back fine. they now think its due to worrying to much but i cant help but think different. it is not a bad pain, it is usually on the left side of my breat near my arm. sometimes on the right but hardly ever and sometimes theres a slight tingle in the middle of my chest. also i have little tingles in my hand and fingers and shooting pains. the pains everywhere mostly feel like shooting pains. please help me, im very scared.
Hi, This is Chat Doctor. Pain in chest due to heart disease is very rare at your age. Chest pain due to heart disease is non localized, squeezing type & increase on exertion. Still you need to do a 2D Echo for cardiac evaluation. Chest pain at your age can be simple muscle pain or Costco
