Hi,

I understand your concern and would explain that your symptoms are probably related to a musculo-skeletal pain, considering your young age. Anxiety can mimic this clinical situation too.

Anyway, if the chest pain is triggered by deep breathing or manual massage on the chest, it is probably related to a local musculo-skeletal pain or inflammation. In such case ibuprofen or acetaminophen would help relieve your symptoms.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka,
