Chest pain
I am 16 years old. I have always gotten a quick sharp pain randomly every now and then on the left side of my chest but not that often. This year though I have been experiencing the pain almost everyday. It is a sharp pain on the left side of my chest. It hurts a lot when I try to take a deep breath. It also hurts also when I try and move. Laying down on my left side is excruciating. And when I want to roll over it hurts less if I hold my breath. is this something I should worry about?
