If you are dealing with a chest pain, you should know that the causes are multiple, starting from muscles spasm to heart attacks. The most important thing when you experience such pain is seeing a doctor right away to remove any suspicion of a heart attack.
Anyhow, you can easily detect if it’s a heart attack or muscular tightness because in the last case you will feel the pain whenever you are moving the arms, having problems in reaching forward. Sometimes you may experience numbness in your wrists or forearms and your shoulders and lean forward (natural body reaction to chest pain).
Well, if you found yourself in this position, then you might be interested in practicing some yoga poses to stretch your pectoralis minor muscle group. This way you will tighten the chest muscles by opening and expanding the chest.
Tip: keep an eye to your posture by correcting it every time you stand hunched over your laptop.
