It sounds like the 16-year-old might have costochondritis, where the cartilage connecting the ribs and breastbone gets inflamed, causing chest pain, especially on the left side. Stress and overuse of muscles can trigger this. Rest, heat therapy, and avoiding activities that worsen the pain can help. If it doesn't improve, consult a cardiologist.
