Pressure under left pecturial Muscle
I experience a slight chest tightness from time to time and am wondering if this is necessarily cardiac related? Last year I reported this to my dr and she had me do a stress test and the nuclear test, both of which didn’t show any problems. Still intermitently by days I experience slight pressure from time to time on the left side of my chest near the bottom of the left pectorial muscle. This discomfort/pressure usually occurs after I have a stressfull moment or have gas. I notice it more when I am sitting still which makes me suspect gas. I am wondering if anyone else experieces this and hoping that it doesn’t always indicate a cardio event. Thank you for your time
If you are referring to the area right next to your armpit, then I have been having that pain for years. I brought it to my doctors attention about 5 or 6 years ago and he said there was nothing there, just muscle so maybe it was a muscle strain. I can’t say there is any rhyme or reason to when it occurs. Patty 55 female possible mild mi december 2003
