I'm having this tight feeling in the left side of my chest for a while now, and it's making me really uncomfortable. I had an echocardiography and an ECG done, and they both came back normal. Do you think I should get a lung test?

View allI've been having chest pain on the left side whenever I sleep on my left side, but it doesn't hurt when I switch to the right side. There aren't any other symptoms, just this pain. Do you have any idea what might be causing this?
This type of chest pain that occurs with certain movements or positions, such as when lying on the left side, can sometimes be related to musculoskeletal issues or inflammation of the chest wall. To help relieve the pain, you can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen (Tylenol) as needed. Additionally, applying a warm compress to the painful area may also provide some relief. If the pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm recovering from Covid and sometimes I feel my heart racing, so my doctor wants me to get some tests done. I've already finished my ECG and Echo, and I'm wearing this Holter monitor today. Do I need to just hang out at home and keep an eye on things, or can I go about my normal day, like going to work, having meetings, and driving around? If keeping up with my usual routine is doable, is it necessary or could I just relax at home if I wanted to? Let me know what you think!
While the Holter machine is fitted on your body, it is recommended to continue your regular daily activities as usual. You can go to the office, attend meetings, drive, and carry on with your daily routine. There is no need to stay at home and observe yourself during the Holter monitoring. It is important to maintain your usual activities to get an accurate representation of your heart's activity throughout the day. Thank you for providing the information.
