About 3 years ago I fell in the bath tub and hit my chest on the metal rail that slides the windows of the bathtub... I was getting a shampoo from the bottom of the sink but I couldn't reach and I stretched a bit more I slipped forward and fell on my chest. For the next couple of weeks my chest had a big bruise, a line that went across my breast. I couldn't even lift my arms up that's how bad it was. Now that is been 3 years I get like small chest pains and feel like I can't breathe.

So I don't suppose you ever went to have it checked out when it happened, did you?

What has your doctor said about this? Surely you've gone to the doctor at least once in the last 3 years.

Yeah I have gone and haven't told the doctor since I didn't think it mattered.But I really didn't think the pain would back but now it comes more frequently . Is it possible I could have broke or damaged something? I'm afraid oh what the doctor may say...

There are many possibilities, some related to the fall, others not related at all, but all of them need to be checked by a doctor to get an accurate diagnosis. Giving a diagnosis online is impossible.

You will need to see your doctor about this.
