Consider seeing doc: bothersome chest pain is a problem no matter what the cause. They younger a person, the less likely it's angina pectoris (heart attack chest pain). If you have a history of heart and/or lung disease, the pain could be heart-related. Even if it's a muscle strain with sharp localized soreness, you should see a doctor.

Chest pain: describe your chest pain in details: Location, nature (sharp, dull, crushing etc), does it move to other areas of your body such as your neck, chin or your arm, other associated symptoms such as nausea, hear burn, sweating, palpitation and one of the physicians can explain the chest pain to you
