I'm 14 (male) and about 2 times in the last week I've had the left side of my heart hurt. I don't think it was heart burn because it didn't feel like burning, more like a sharp pain. The pain only lasts about 5 minutes and it's not excruciating or anything. I am not overweight. Should I be concerned?
Answer:
Probably not, its probably Precordial Catch Syndrome (PCS)
Precordial Catch Syndrome (PCS) is the most common cause of recurring chest pain. It is also sometimes known as “a stitch in the side” or “Texidor’s twinge”. It occurs most often in children and teenagers, but does persist into adulthood as well. The pain occurs just under the left nipple, near where you feel the heart beat most strongly on the front of the chest, and comes on very suddenly.
Answer:
1) you cannot feel the left side of your heart
2) heart burn is indigestion not anything to do with the heart
