Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Your history of sharp knife-gabbing pain on both sides of the chest and abdomen 6/10 on pain scale can be due to the following things:
Lung or pleura problem- like pluerisy
Spinal problems causing sensory neurological problem.
Heart problem at your age is rare.

I would advise you the following:
-First of all inform parents or guardians.
Consult a Doctor for physical examination and investigations: like
X-ray of the chest and abdomen in standing position.
MRI of the cervico-thoracic area.

Treatment will be depending upon the findings.
