Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
At your age of 22 years, stabbing chest pain with palpitations are seen most commonly with stress and anxiety.
But better to get done ecg first to rule out heart diseases.
If ecg is normal then no need to worry for heart diseases.
Avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
