You may have a chest infection or an injury - you would probably know if you had injured say, one of your ribs. You could have a spontaneous pneumothorax - don't ask me to explain that one - but to do with your lungs where one collapses.
Any chest pain should be investigated by a doctor. If it is really painful and causes severe difficulty in breathing, pain spreads to either of your shoulders or arms, you are clammy, sweating, pale and nauseous, you MUST go immediately to A&E - preferably in an ambulance.

That could be any number of reasons. See a doctor. Any time you suffer chest pains that is considered serious until a doctor says otherwise. Get going now. Good luck!

best see a doctor- it coud be one of many things!
I had a really bad back yesterday and could barely move- I ended up in A and E - I was told to take ibuprofen and Paracetamol- absolutely fantastic- I can now move free from pain-
muscle strain- trapped nerve- pleursy- cracked rib- strain around muscles of rib!- best get it checked out

I get that - & in my case it is a mitrovalvic prolapse. It's nothing serious but you should go to your doctor to check it out.
