Hi,
Thanks for query,
If you are elderly then go for light exercise like slow walking,swimming.
Avoid running,jogging,weight lifting.
Go for full cardiac tests to rule out coronary insufficiency.
Ok and bye.

Hi,
Welcome to Healthcaremagic
Thanks for your query
We could help you better if you could give your age and current health status like diabetes, hypertension or lipid disorder.
The possible differential diagnoses are muscular pain due to heavy exercise, or cardiac pain or pain due to reflux of acid in food pipe (gastroesophageal reflux). You need to see a doctor for physical examination.
Take care
