Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. Pain in chest increasing with bending or turning is clearly indicating musculoskeletal pain. But it is always better to rule out cardiac cause first. So get done ECG to rule out cardiac cause. If this is normal then mostly musculoskeletal cause for your dull pain. Try to follow these steps for better symptomatic control.1. Avoid heavy weight lifting2. Avoid strenuous exercise.3. Avoid movements causing pain.4. Take good painkiller and muscle relaxant 5. Apply warm water pad on affected site.
