Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I went through the query and understood your concern.

With your normal BP, the chance of heart ischaemia or heart attack is very rare. So be relaxed.

For pain you can take NSAID like aceclofenac and also proton pump inhibitor like pantoprazole. This will take care of any inflammatory pain and gastro esophageal reflux which may cause pain.

I will be little concerned if you get severe chest pain with other symptoms like vomiting, radiating pain to left upper limb or jaw. Also keep monitoring your BP. If any variations then get done ECG once to rule out any cardiac problem. Otherwise be relaxed. .

I hope this information helps you. Feel free to ask for any further queries. I will be glad to answer them.
Wish you good health and faster recovery.
Regards
