Question : I’ve had left side chest pain. Almost like a burning stabbing feeling all day. Should I go to the ER? Urgent care is closed.

Brief Answer:
Go to ER.

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

You should go to ER.
You look like you are having angina (pain in heart) and you may have infarction and heart attack.
Most probably is associated with pain in left arm, shoulder, or jaw.
You can put a trinitrine table under tongue.

Hope I have answered the question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
