Mild pain at one point - left side chest

Question

Asked for Male, 37 Years

I have experiencing mild pain at fixed point on my left side chest most of the time since last 3-4 months. Most of the time it can be felt if I can give some concentration on it but some times I feel uncomfortable with this. I have also consulted physician when it started.He performed ECG which report was normal. He said it can due to gas or anxiety. But it has never stopped, what should I do? Thank you in advance.
