I have really sharp pain in my chest when i move my neck forward, or to the right or left. also when i lie down and lift my arms up.

Musculoskeletal: Sounds like you have strained a muscle or one of the joints in your chest. Common in your age group and sometimes takes a while to heal. Non steroidal anti inflammatory drugs and rest are the mainstays of treatment.
