Hi,
Welcome.
Cardiac pain at your age is rare. But you need evaluation for palpitations & racing heart beat.
You should go for a 24hr ECG monitoring called as Holter monitoring to rule out any arrythmia. I will also recommend you for a 2D Echo & thyroid profile to rule out any associated abnormality.
Thanks
