Understanding your concern. As per your query you have sharp chest pain . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like COPD , bronchitis , acid reflux or angina .
If there is shortness of breath , dizziness and fatigue then consult cardiologist without any delay . If there is no such symptoms then consult chest specialist for proper examination .
Doctor may order x-ray , blood test and physical examination . Doctor may prescribe steroids , anti histamine , antibiotics along with anti inflammatory . For now take steam and do warm saline gargles .
Eat non spicy and light meals , take light walk after every meal and keep your head elevated while sleeping . Taking steam will also be helpful .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
