hey everyone, I'm an 18 year old male who
walks occasionally and doesn't lead a very
strenuous lifestyle. 2 days ago at work I
felt a slight pain in the middle of my
chest and a more concentrated smaller pain
on the left side of my chest. The pain in
the middle of my chest has gone away, but
i still have the one over my heart. I am
one of those ultra-paranoid people that
immediatly get this kind of thing and
assume it's heart disease or something. I
don't know of this pain over my heart is
actually a pain in my heart or if it's
just in the area and I have nothing to
worry about. I told my dad and he
basically shrugged it off and told me I
have nothing to worry about. He said I'm
young and that rarely do people my age
have heart problems. While I do agree with
him, it's hard to believe it's nothing,
when im feeling the pain (i'm sure many of
you know this feeling). anyway, just
wanted to hear wat u guys have to say. thx

Hiy umm...I dnt think its your heart your

heart pain is usually just a pressure not
a pain so sharp pains are a good sighn
