I'm curious if it's possible for someone my age, 23, to have heart problems. If it is, what might cause it? I'm hopeful for some clarity on this.

Yes, it is possible for a 23 year old to have heart problems. One possible reason could be a condition called "congenital heart disease," which means the person is born with a heart defect. Other reasons could include infections, inflammatory conditions like myocarditis, or even lifestyle factors such as poor diet, lack of exercise, or substance abuse. It is important to consult a doctor for proper evaluation and treatment.

I've recently quit smoking, but I'm still experiencing chest pain. I had a stress test done, and it came back normal. Could you suggest a doctor who might be able to help me with this?

Given your history of smoking and persistent chest pain despite a normal stress test, consult a pulmonologist or a cardiologist to rule out underlying conditions such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pulmonary embolism, or cardiac issues like coronary artery disease or pericarditis; they will evaluate your symptoms, medical history, and test results to determine the cause of your chest pain and develop an appropriate treatment plan.
