A bit worried about these symptoms

Firstly sorry for the duplicate post, I originally posted under health but only had one response so posting here for traffic.

I've been suffering with left sided chest pain for over a week now with pins/needles down my arm and into my hands. I had the exact same symptoms back in February and was sent for a ECG, X-rays, bloods etc and my heart is perfectly healthy. They thought it was maybe a viral lung infection. After 2-3 weeks it went away.

I'm now having the exact same symptoms but also numbness around the corner of my mouth - very similar to when the injection wears off after a filling. I've been wondering if I maybe have a trapped nerve in my neck which could explain all the symptoms but the facial numbness is what is worrying me. I can smile, eat, fully move my face etc so it's more of a sensation and sometimes I feel like i'm drooling slightly. I plan to get to my GP tomorrow but does anyone have any suggestions what this could be, could it be a pinched nerve?

Other than this iIeel ok, am walking around like normal, able to eat and do normal things so I'm a bit stumped. Many thanks

Have you called NHS111 for advice? Might be worth doing.
