See your doctor.: It is rare for a 24 year old to have chest pain from some life-threatening cause, HOWEVER, even at 24 years old, chest pain CAN be serious. Chest pain can be caused many things, including rib injury, rib inflammation, heartburn, blood clots, poor circulation, panic attack, heart attack, and others. I strongly advise you to see your doctor to verify that you don't have a serious problem.

Chest pain: There are many causes of chest pain, the heart is one, intestinal gas and thoracic musculoskeletal pains are very common, anxiety and panic attacks likewise are frequent causes. You should always ask the doctors who see you what they think is the problem you came for and what to do about it.
