What Causes Chest And Neck Pain While Breathing?

I am 14 years old. 5' 9" and 134 Pounds. In the past two days i have developed a bad chest pain. My chest under my sternum and my lower neck hurt when breathing in and out. It is uncomfortable and is affecting how i feel throughout the day. What is wrong?

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Possibility of musculoskeletal pain is more likely.
So avoid movements causing pain.
Apply warm water pad on affected areas.
Take simple painkiller like paracetamol or ibuprofen.
Don't worry, you will mostly improve with all these in 2-3 days.
If still not improving after 3 days, consult doctor.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
