Chest pain

Question

Chest pain

Asked for Male, 23 Years

I’ve been experiencing tightness and a dull pain in my chest for the last 12-14hrs. But it comes in waves, if i don’t think about it it doesn’t hurt or have any tightness but if i start to think about it it hurts and gets tighter. It also goes always when i put a cold wet towel over my chest. Idk if it’s just anxiety or if I’m having a heart attack. I went to sleep last night with the pain woke up without any pain and the pain slowly came back. What is going on?
