I am female, aged 50 years. I exercise regulary and weigh 120 pounds.Today I have experienced significant pain in the left hand side of my chest that worsens  with deep breaths or forward bending . Once I felt the urge to sneeze, and the pain become very intense. It has lasted now for 6 hours. I take daily hypertension medication (lisinopril-HCTZ 10/12.5 mg tabs), but otherwise am in very good health.
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Your pain is associated with movements of chest wall, so musculoskeletal pain is more likely. But better to first rule out heart related pain because you are having hypertension and post menopausal age. So get done ECG and 2d echo. If both these are normal then no need to worry about heart diseases. Musculoskeletal pain is more likely in your case. So apply warm water pad on affected areas. Avoid heavyweight lifting and strenuous exercise. Take painkiller and muscle relaxant Chat Doctor.  Don't worry, you will be alright, but first rule out heart related causes. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
