Q: hi my name is taylor and im a 17 year old girl. i keep having chest pain. sometimes when i inhale it feels like a stabbing pain in my chest. other times it just starts hurting at random times. why?
Hi Taylor,
You should have your heart examed by a physician. Don't assume it is heart disease. Heartburn can give you similar discomfort. Also muscle pain can make it look like chest pain as well. Only a doctor can tell you what is wrong.
Please ask you parents to take you to see the doctor.
Regards,
NC
