Rest, ice, NSAIDs: Chest pain is always a concern because you want to to make sure it doesn't involve your heart or even your lungs. You describe mechanical soreness and at your age it is unlikely due to a heart problem. It sounds like you either have muscle soreness or inflammation of the joints between the ribs and the sternum (breast bone). These can be resolved with rest,nice and anti inflammatory meds.
