I was having a bath and from a horizontal position, raised my back and head upwards. Suddenly, I felt a sharp pain building up and was located in a central area of my chest or breast bone. Almost like a spasm or kind of strain or muscle cramp. Do you think one can get cramp or strains in this region of the upper chest? My heart has never felt weak and I am generally very fit. Does worry me, heard of stories this may happen before a heart attack! Any advice or tips welcome.

Go get that checked out with your doctor for peace of mind. If it feels like an elephant is standing on your chest call 911 that is a sign of a heart attack. Your doctor can tell you what is going on. It can be several things. It is better to be safe than sorry.

Would suggest you have heart condition ruled out.. the other consideration would be some ribs being rotated a bit too much and will cause discomfort at the sternum where the cartilage fastens on.. but you would generally feel soreness if you followed the cartilage outward.. If this is not present, do get yourself checked out for cardiac problems.

It could be your gallbladder. I too had a lot of chest pain and after all the heart tests, they found out that I had an enlarged gallbladder. Felt like a hippo was on my chest. I had the surgery (outpatient 1 day) and have felt better ever since..
