With an anxiety attack, the pain is usually a stabbing or needle-like sensation right in the middle of your chest. A heart attack often feels more like pressure or tightness in the chest. An anxiety attack is usually triggered by an upcoming event, such as a doctor appointment, speech, or other cause of nervousness. Change Your Diet As we mentioned before, even simple bloating can lead to intense chest tightness and discomfort. Avoid fatty, processed and fried foods as these can be large contributors to gas build-up within the body, ultimately leading to pressure and pain within the chest.
