Every time I start running a lot my heart (not my chest) starts to hurt a little bit. i can feel it beating in my chest and it feels like something is bothering it. I'm nervous about it because I'm young and never had had any problem with my heart before. What could it be? What do i do?
Hi Colton,
Have you always been a runner or is this something you just started?
Go tell the doctor sounds like anxiety
There can be several things causing the pain.
First, I'd suggest you press down lightly on the spot that hurts. Is there any tenderness? If so, it the lining around your lungs that's causing the pain. Something like that can normally induce pain if irritated or inflamed. This normally happens during exercise, when you're breathing in and out intensely.
However, since I'm not an expert when it comes to this, you should get it checked out. It's better to be safe than sorry.
