Feeling heart beat, skipped beats through skin
When I have chest discomfort (almost like a quick pencil stabbing) in place my finger on the spot of pain and can feel my heartbeat in that spot. Is this normal?

Man worry I have is when this happens I check my pulse and when the “sensation” kicks in my pulse actually pauses before starting again
The pains In chest happen out of nowhere. The come quickly and leave. Still worrisome for sure
Never knew my real father so unfortunately don’t know 🙁
Oh, you're a guy! Do the pains radiate up and down your arm or is the pain fixed in one spot in your arm as it is in your chest? I would not worry in the least. Tell me...did your father have a heart attack early in his life? Men follow their fathers in this regard. If not, don't worry. We all have odd pains here and there in our bodies. I would get active, stop coffee and booze, eat well and do for others. Could it be that focussing on pains and heart bumps and flips (which so many of us have, especially coffee drinkers) take your mind off what is really worrying you?
I’m also a male. Lol. I do feel pains in my left arm as well. Doctor dismissed them
Heart discomfort or pain moves...up the arm, up the neck, across the chest. Maybe you can stand in a doorway and put your arms on either side and push your body forward to loosen up tight muscles. Being stressed can make muscles tense up. So can being dehydrated so drink up...water!
Questions: Do you exercise vigorously? And can you stop drinking coffee, tea, alcohol or eating chocolate?
You may find that these worrying issues disappear completely.
You are very young for any heart issues. It doesn't mean a woman of 36 can't have them but it would be very very unlikely and rare.
Stays mostly in same spot. Upper left chest few inches off breastbone. Like a pinch almost
Does the pain move or is it in one location?
From what I’ve read it appears to be called APCs and it happens randomly all day long
Yes it is. Thank you. I believe it is an electrical issue as well as I have sinus bradycardia that doesn’t really cause me trouble with the exception of some pains. The chest pains , which I have now, is located in upper chest. That’s the part that concerns me with this
