Reason For Chest Pain?

So my doctor said i have something that can affect people up the age of 25. It had youth in the name and its where the bits in between bones dont grow as fast as the bones and causes a lot of pain. I get it in my chest - when i breathe in sometimes feels like something stabbing my lungs almost and sometimes likes some one is grabbing the bones in my chest and ripping them apart.. i need the name

Thanks for your question on HCM.
I can understand your situation and problem.
In my opinion you are having anxiety mostly.
But better to rule out cardiac and pulmonary cause for your symptoms.
So get done ECG to rule out cardiac cause. If ECG is normal than no need to worry much for cardiac cause.
Get done chest x ray and PFT (pulmonary function test), to rule out pulmonary cause.
If all are normal than anxiety is the cause for your symptoms.
So avoid stress and anxiety. Be relax and calm.
Consult psychiatrist and get done counselling sessions. Try to identify stressor in your life and start working on its solution.
Don't worry much, you will be alright.
