Sharp chest pains

My daughter, she is 14, has been having chest pains constanly. She is always complaining of her chest hurting, and sometimes she says that she gets realy sharp pains that last from a 1 to 3 minutes. The pain has been there for sometime, I believe for about a month. I'm not sure what to do, she says that the sharp pains are coming even more now. Atleast once a say, and she sometimes gets short of breath. She also has a nasty cough,
