Left Side chest pain

Question

Asked for Male, 24 Years

Hello Doctors, From past 2 years I am suffering from left side chest pain that comes for a second and go. And sometimes it hurts the left shoulder too. The pain often comes for a particular pinch like area. Most times the pain occurs in a particular area- that is left upper chest in a fixed area.I had done several ecg ,echo,lipid test. All are normal! I am in a constant confusion of thinking heart issue and consult doctor. Doctor says it's musculoskeletal gastric anxiety pain. Feeling chest pain regularly makes me worry more and thinking more about heart issue. Can you suggest what is the real cause and solution for that! Do i need any further test like CT ANGIO!
