What Causes Chest Pain?

hi im 19 years old and have smoked maybe 30 cigarettes in my life and dipped like two cans of mouth tobacco. I had a small amount of chest pain and had a barely high htc and hb count on a blood test and was wondering if there was anything I needed to do besides quit tobacco which i have already done

Hi....

Welcome to healthcare magic.

As per your complain you have problem of chest pain that may be because of lung infection or other condition.

Mention your complete blood cell count.
Auscaltation of respiratory sound helpful in diagnosis.

Take a chest x ray to check any lung consolidation or pneumonia like condition.
You are doing smoking and tobacco chewing so more chanse to damage a lung.

Consult a pulmonologist for further diagnosis .
Pulmonary function test and physical examination give exact idea.
Start a treatment according to cause.

I hope my guidance helpful to you..
Take care.
Thank you.
