I've been having some really really bad chest pains on my right side. It has been like this since the second week of school. Since then, my chest has never not hurt. Its either low, medium or high CONSTANT pain.
Has anyone else ever had these pains. Or does anyone have any idea of what they can be?

1.)  Have you been working out a lot?  Sometimes you can pull a muscle in your chest.  You don't always feel the pain right away; sometimes it takes a week or two.

2.)  Are you stressed?  Stress can cause that kind of pain.

Always make sure when you go to a doctor that you let them know how bad the pain is on a scale of 1-10.  When I was having chest pains my doctor made me get an EKG to make sure nothing was wrong with my heart.

I got a lot of some sorts of chest pain, but it's due training. My chest muscles are growing all the time, you see. If the doctor took a heart film, and listened to your heart, and didn't notice anything abnormal. I'm sure you got nothing to worry about.

Also pressure applied to the chest may cause some sorts of chest pains, aswell as some trouble with the stomach. Anxiety may also cause chest pains. But if the doctor didn't find anything abnormal in the heart film, or didn't notice anything while listening to your heart. I doubt it's anything to worry about, it might be just anxiety.

However if they didn't make a heart film, then yeah.. I guess you should ask them to have one. You're still really young which makes it extremly rare for you to have heart trouble.. but sure it's not impossible but not just really likely.
