I'm having this issue with pain in my upper chest thats been going on for the last six days, and I'm also dealing with a blocked nose and a bit of a cough. I havent had any fever, but the first day, the pain was pretty intense and felt like a crushing sensation whenever I moved, with pressure in the upper chest area. My hand and shoulder muscles are hurting too, and there's some pain in my back just behind my chest along with prickly feelings every now and then. It's making it really hard for me to sleep. A couple of weeks ago, I had a cold with a fever and a cough but there was no chest pain then. I used to smoke for a few years but I quit smoking about a year ago. Could you help me figure out what's going on and suggest which specialist I should see?

View allI'm experiencing shortness of breath and a tight feeling in my chest, and I've also noticed some pain in my calf muscles when I climb stairs. My heart starts beating really fast too. I've already had an echo stress test and a chest X-ray, and everything came back normal. What could be causing these symptoms? I'm really confused about what's going on.
