At 21 days old they need to be sexed, as that is when they are (possibly, but better safe than sorry, especially with young pigs) sexually mature. It is quite difficult to tell them apart when they are this young, but just try your best. Going online and printing out pictures to take along when you try to figure it out is quite helpful. I would keep on checking them for a while, just in case you did make a mistake.

You should go to your local vet and tell him or her about your guinea pig's pain and he or she will give you some medication.
Guinea pigs live 3-8 years, but an average life span for healthy guinea pigs is about 5-6 years. A lucky guinea pig can sometimes live up to 10 years! So, a 5 year old guinea pig is getting up there in years, but if properly cared for, can live for a long awhile yet.
