Abstract
A 21-year-old college athlete was seen on the first day of football practice because of an acute onset of severe chest pain. The pain was noted during conditioning drills before any body contact had begun. The sharp, intermittent, left inframammary pain was aggravated by twisting or turning. The pain did not radiate and was not associated with shortness of breath, palpitations, nausea, or vomiting.
