Thanks for your question on HCM.
In my opinion we should first rule out cardiac cause for your chest pain.
So ger done ECG. If this is normal than no need to worry much for cardiac cause.
It seems muscular pain mostly.
So try to follow these steps for better symptomatic relief.
1. Avoid heavy weight lifting and strenuous exercise.
2. Avoid bad postures in sleep.
3. Take good painkiller and muscle relaxant.
4. Apply warm water pad on affected site.
5. Avoid stress and anxiety. Be relax and calm.
