Were Heart Is Located?

It lies in the front and middle of your chest, behind and slightly to the left of your breastbone. It is a muscle that pumps blood to all parts of your body to provide it with the oxygen and nutrients in needs to function. Your heart has the right and left separated by a wall.

Is the heart on the left or right?

Your Heart is Not on the Left Side of Your Chest

Your heart is in middle of your chest, in between your right and left lung. It is, however, tilted slightly to the left.

Why is the heart located in the left side?

The heart's left ventricle has to be bigger as it pumps oxygen rich blood round the whole body, meaning the heart is skewed to the left. The heart is located fairly centrally beneath the breastbone, but it does protrude towards the left.
