Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
Concentra is hormonal contraceptive pill.
It can cause mood swings, anxiety, stress etc.
So chest tightness in your case is mostly due to drug induced anxiety and stress.
So better to stop this drug.
Do more yoga, pranayam and other relaxation techniques.
Avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
Start barrier contraceptive measures like copper T or condoms to avoid hormone pills related side effects.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
