Dull Pain in left side of chest

Question

Asked for Male, 30 Years

I am experiencing a dull pain towards left side of chest. From the center of the left chest rib and upwards towards left shoulder from 3 days. The pain increases when I lean forward or round my shoulders. Sometimes stretching the left shoulder backwards seems to provide temporary relief. I do not seem to have any acidity problems and I've never had any history of high BP or heart problems. What could be causing this dull pain?
