Hello,
Chest pain is not likely to be associated with hysterectomy. Chest pain can occur due to cardiac cause, respiratory cause, muscular cause or pleural cause. I suggest you to consult your cardiologist for clinical assessment and thus management.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
