How much pain is normal after an upper endoscopy?

I had one done yesterday and I had some chest pain after in recovery and they did an EKG and said it was fine, that the pain would be gone by today but I woke up today, the pain is worse. it's like inhaling and exhaling, laughing, literally just breathing hurts so bad? it's like mid to upper back all the way up my throat/chest, shoulders, jaw, my head hurts etc. I assumed there would be the sore throat but like idk if this amount is normal?

maybe it's nothing but I'm gonna just be anxious if I don't ask so I'd rather be able to reassure myself ig

it hurts so bad tho like its becoming a problem, minor movements make me feel like every inch of the areas in pain are being stabbed repeatedly

idk like I expected some amount of throat discomfort and maybe a stomach ache but I can't understand why I'm having pain elsewhere bc they looked in my esophagus/stomach and small intestines like what about that is causing this pain lol
