Cold, Pain In Middle Of Chest, Dizziness. Anything To Worry?

I have had a head cold for about a week and now I am having random pains in the middle of my chest like someone is stepping on it. It only is in the middle for a while and then is gone . I have had a seashells of dizziness today and hot then cold but no fever. I am otherwise a health 37 year old woman. Should I be seen or let this pass? I don't have a credit card to use for an answer

Hi,

Thanks for writing to health care magic.
I can understand your concern.

You should be investigated for the cause of that chest pain. ECG should be done to rule out cardiac causes of that chest pain.
One of the causes could be acid reflux into the esophagus. If this is the cause then antacids are recommended by your doctor.
Continue to ask further queries as required.
Hope this helps.
Take care.
