I'm experiencing just mild chest pain that's been on the left side and it's been going on since morning. It hasn't stopped. What would you suggest I do?

Chest pain, especially if it's persistent and on the left side, can be concerning. It's important to rule out any serious conditions like a heart attack.

It's important to get evaluated by a healthcare professional as soon as possible to determine the cause of your chest pain.
