Chest pains and aches

I’ve been having sharp pains and an aching feeling in my chest for a few months now could this be sign of something really bad?

See your GP. It could be so many things from not at all serious to potentially very serious.
Have you done any strenous exercises or had trauma before/around time it started to hurt?

Do you exercise regularly? At ok weight range? Eat roughly normally?

Also do you drink/smoke?

Does the pain come from a specific location or is it anywhere/randomly on the chest area?

Usually in the same place around the centre or just below on the left hand side
I really don’t think you should be asking for or taking advice on an Internet forum.

I would never go off what someone tells me to do ie. take some sort of medicine! Just wanted to see if anyone else has experienced the same or may have an idea that’s all.
