It really depends on why you have chest pains. If it’s from something called costocondritis aka inflamed rib cartilage then yes. But if you don’t know why your having chest pain you should seek medical care as chest pains are not normal at any age.

First of all if you are having regular chest pain you need to see your
primary care Dr or a cardiologist to see what is going on with your heart.
It could be many things from reflux heartburn, rib pain to cardiac pain
from enlarged heart or blood vessel constriction. You need to have it
checked out immediately.
