Sometimes when I breathe I get a very sharp pain in the left side of my chest [ its either the heart or the left lung]. Its hard for me to breathe and it feels like someone is stabbing me
What could be the matter?
Im not to old. Still a teenager.

gas, If you hold your gas you could be causing gas buildup
It puts pressure inside and causes your ribcage to close up on your organs. Let it out. and stretch you back and stuff.

Of course, in a situation like this you should always go to the doctor, but if you want to get some ideas of what it could be you could check out http://www.myelectronicmd.com/step2.php and put in your symptoms. Some of the results for chest pain are fractured ribs or pneumonia, but there are many other things.

it could be pleurisy, or a developing infection. More than likely it's gas. Take gas-x and if that doesn't help go to the Dr. Your too young for much of anything else to be wrong.

Ah, this is exactly what's happening to me! Lame, isn't it?
My mother has said it's either lung consolidation or pleurisy, but she's not sure. I'm hoping to do to the doctor soon.

You go to a medical technologist and have them monitor your "ECG". Then go to a doctor (heart expert) with the results and he should be able to give you the right meds.

It could be acid reflux or something. Get it checked out by a professional.

go to the hospital and get checked, they will probably do a stress test and try to figure out what the pains are.
