You naughty google monster....

I'm no health expert but having had those symptoms myself many times, i'd say it sounds muscular due to tension.

I clench my teeth when i am anxious but took me so long to realise i was doing it. That causes jaw pain and not breathing correctly ie: breathing into your chest rater than your tummy can cause the chest muscle to tense.

My advice would be to do some light stretching excersises to unknot the muscles.

Hope you feel better soon.
