Well my father didnt go to the doctor because he kept saying "its just bloomin heart burn, stuff doctors" then one night at the dinner table that was the last time he complained about it, he had a massive heart attack and didnt even make it to hospital. Please please just go to the doc and maybe if its indigestion they could treat that and you wouldnt get pains anymore.

I had this problem. too!\nI really thought it was something with my heart...\nI went to doctor and he said that was just a result on stress and overworking (overstudying)... So, he said that the best thing is just relax and go to the gym to energize there...\nI did that...\nI started to go to the gym: not so often and i didn't work out very much...But, it helped..\nAnd, i started to eat a little less (but i didn't eat too much, just though to let you know :) )...and because of that i begun to feel lighter and all pains gone...\nHope, that will help at least a little bit :)\nHope that nothing serious with you\nTake care

You're chances are VERY low!  I'm sure you're fine.  You might have some heartburn or a little high anxiety.  That is the usual cause of chest pain, etc.  Just relax.  If it's really driving you crazy, go to your GP and have them do some tests on your heart and blood pressure for some peace of mind.  If you quit smoking, that's a step in the right direction!

go to your doctor..\nand is this your sternum or the xyphoid process, at the tip, because if the xyphoid is broke, it could pierce your lungs or heart..so go to the doctor, get an x-ray

Honestly, there's not much you can do.  You could try wrapping your chest with an ace bandage (not too tight!).  This will keep them from moving as much and help reduce the pain.  Did your doctor take an x-ray to make sure they are only cracked not broken?

One thing could be a sign of a heart attack or you may have ashtma, bronchitis's or some form of a chest cold. If you have chest pains please make sure you get tested RIGHT  AWAY.

It could be gas or air, or pleurisy - fluid around your heart.  It could also be more serious.  If it persists you should get it checked out.

When you say pains in your chest do you mean a tightness like in the middle of your chest??\nSome people even though they eat a diet with potassium in it still need a suppliment that is prescribed for them.\nIf you are 18yrs you can go to a doctor on your own without your parents consent. Call the family doctor that you usually go to or ask friends for referrals. If you are still living at home under the age of 18 you need to speak to your parents. This ongoing chest pain needs to be evaluated and blowing you off by saying eat your bananas is not good enough. You could still have a low potassium level.\nPotassium if it becomes to low is a critical condition and can lead to all types of heart problems that can even be lethal and sudden.\n\nPerhaps your episodes have frightened your parents and it is a subject they are afraid to discuss.\n\nIf you still can;t get thru to them I suggest the next time you have chest pain you call 911 have the paramedics show up at your house and let them take you to the emergency room for an evaluation.\n\n\nP.S. Try to stay away from the cigarette smoke as much as possible. IT IS THE NUMBER ONE CAUSE OF ASTHMA in children and the BIGGEST trigger for an asthma attach\n\n\nall the best to you and keep us posted

Might be GERD.  I would see a doctor, even if all you feel is irritated at that annoying issue ... could save you in the long run, if it is.

angina usually occurs in people who are older (50 years and above), meaning your heart is not getting enough oxygen to do its job. If you've had pains in the last month before experiencing  a pressing sensation near the center of your chest, then it probably is Angina.

Please see a doctor.  Yes, it could be something besides cardiac problems - and that is very, very likely.  But in some people, especially females, heart attacks don't follow a "traditional" pattern of clutching your chest and dropping to the floor.  Nobody can make a diagnosis online, not even a doctor.  Odds are, it's nothing to get worked up about - but please see a doctor to be sure.

Definitely see your doctor.  Tightness in the chest is not something to mess with!

Chest pain may result from angina, heart attack, and other serious diseases. If you experience chest pain, consider it a warning for you to seek medical attention and treatment. While chest pain may be a warning of a heart attack, it may result from other disorders, such as another heart condition, lung disorder, or from a gastrointestinal problem. Chest wall pain is a relatively harmless chest pain caused by muscle and cartilage tenderness in the chest wall. In any event, you should seek immediate medical attention when you experience undiagnosed chest pain.
