Is it normal to have physical pain?

Coming up 10 months since my father’s suicide. Not sure if it’s a normal part of grieving process or maybe literal heartbreak but been having physical pains the past few months. It’s nothing compared to the mental pain but lately I’ve been having pain in my heart daily and stomach tightness a few times a week.

Should I see a doctor (especially for my heart) or just wait it out?

I will mention that since my father’s death I have been in a deep depression so of course been taking care of myself. Not exercising, not stretching, not sleeping, not drinking enough water, and eating junk food. I vape excessive amounts to manage stress.
