Im 17 and every so often i get sharp pains in the right side of my heart area. is that just growin pains? or what im eatin? or?

Growing pains is: what we use to refer to the atypical musculo skeletal pains young individuals experience. It is not a medical term. Sharp chest pains are usually from the muscles and the bones not the heart. It is unlikely to be from what you eat.
