I've a pain in the centre of my chest, where the breastbone is located. It occurs when I take certain positions, like when I stretch or bend down. It feels as if something is pressing the area. I've been having it for the past few weeks. There is no shortness of breath as such.

Since it's paining or pressing it's absolutely not due to heart but muscle pain. Simple painkillers will help
