Hi welcome to Chat Doctor... First let me know you this burning type pain can occur if you have gastritis like symptoms ... It can lead referred pain... Omeprazole taken for it.... Second as per your doctor musculoskeletal pain could because ... Here you have chronic pain, so physiotherapy can be taken ...for stretching chest wall muscle exercise..... If pain more analgesic can take.... Here cardiac cause Seems to be unlikely. Still you can do ECG or echo to rule out cardiac cause ...Treadmill test also can be done.... Hope your concern solved.
