Hello, This does not look like cardiac pain. This is more likely cervical spine related. Take a neurologist opinion and do MRI cervical spine and ECG. For now, use a cervical collar, take rest, no heavy weight lifting and start tab. Myospaz forte twice a day after meals for 3 days. Take care. Stay safe
