Chest pain after gym

I’m a guy in my 60. I have a chest pain exactly at the position of my heart for a week. It’s a constant dull pain that is not uncomfortable.

Before this I was at at a gym doing weights n resistant training. I hv been going to the gym for the past 5 years. Could I hv strained my heart? Thanks
