hi I too have sundenly developed a to tocuh pain in my left side around my heart area.. Im a little concerned as im 40 yrs old and have had 2 previous heart attach and 2 stents.. do you think it is just musclaur pain .there is one spot that to touch feel like a knife going in
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. By your history and description, possibility of musculoskeletal pain is more. But since you are having previous heart attacks and stents, better to first rule out heart diseases. So first get done ECG and 2d echo. If both these are normal then no need to worry about heart diseases. Then musculoskeletal pain is more likely. So apply warm water pad on affected areas. Take painkiller and muscle relaxant Chat Doctor.  Don't worry, you will be alright. But first rule out heart diseases. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
