Pinching pain in the left side of chest

2020-08-10 20:06:08
I have been experiencing a pinching pain in the left side of my chest, it comes and goes. I am unsure about whether it is a muscle pull or something related to the heart. Google has clearly scared me. What should I do? Should I consult a doctor?
