Brief Answer:
Can you describe the chest pain?

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome here,

Kindly describe the chest pain so that I am better able to help. What does it feel like? does it get worse on pressing? What makes it better? What makes it worse?

It is a protocol for every chest pain to get an ECG done. So I would suggest that you pay a visit at a nearby hospital to get this test done.

Dr Vaishalee
