Pec tore? how to tell

[gst528i]

I was working out doing chest press. Didn't press more that i usually do, but while doing the 14th rep i felt the sharp pain on the left chest side. Felt like someone squeezing my heart and fell to the floor . Now it hurts even if i take deep breaths or laugh. Can't sleep on left side and the pain is not like the pain of a pulled muscle. Can a pec muscle be pulled ? If it is torn how long will it take to heal. And is there anyway to tell for sure if it's torn other than mri?

p.s This is my first noob question, i well come any


thanks guys for any info

i have the same thing, although it feels more like a rib issue, it hurts like hell to breath, sneeze, and bend over to pick something up. Maybe it's a smaller muscle in between the ribs?

ended up being a torn muscle in between ribs, healing quickly.
