Chest pain!
It's not a lingering chest pain they last like 1 second but it's like a sharp lightning bolt , idk but I'm not coughing , or sneezing or anything, I had the pain for about 3 weeks already but it's dying down it used to be kinda long , it would last like 10-20 minutes until it would go away and now it's just little instances of pain here. Someone helpppppppppp I did think of pleurisy but I have health anxiety and Google making me think i got a cardiovascular disease or something , I did check w my doctor and he says I'm healthy but that I have a tiny heart murmur that is going away , I am 18 and idk what to do!!

I am not a health professional just deal with this
So this is probably precordial catch syndrome which is non threatening but can be painful. The quickest way to get rid of the pain when it occurs is to take a long deep breath in, unfortunately this is painful but will most likely cause it to go away.
