It's chostocondratis and it can stay around for your whole life it's inflamed cartilage the only way for me to ease the pain is to make it pop . Ibuprofen work best to get rid of inflammation I've dealt w the same problem for almost 3 years now on and off

Go to the Chiropractor. My daughter had the same thing and it was because her spine had a curve in it and was pulling her rib cage. Once they straightened her spine out the chest pain went away.

I have been having similar pain in my right breast. Whenever I take a deep breath it hurts really bad, the pain is so hard and sharp that I have to hold my breast up to get relief. I am not pregnant though. Did you find out the cause? I am also having pains in the same breast about 5 times a day every day, they last about 20 minutes and get harder each time

I know exactly what you're experiencing. Not sure if you've had this resolved or not, but its classic precordial catch syndrome (PCS). At 23 years old, you're still prone to having this, from time to time, but don't worry, you'll out grow it in a few more years.

My pains have been happening since the 7th grade when i was 12-13 and how it starts is there will be this dull pain under my left breast and if i happen to breathe at the wrong time it gets ten times worse. I have to shorten my breathe to avoid more severe pains or sometimes i just dont breathe at all which becomes difficult since it takes about 30 sec. to 1 min. to pass. In 2012 or 2013 i realized it happens more at night when i sleep on my left side. Eventually i stopped sleeping on that side altogether and only sleep on my right now. Once i was on my period and cramps were so severe that i couldnt sleep in one position all night. I slept on my left for about 3 weeks and the pains didnt flare up and i thought they had gone away for good. Unfortunately one night the pain flared up again. I usually stoop over when it happens and at the time i believed that what i was experiencing was a mild heart attack because i was young and didnt really know and i read an article on what to do during heart attacks and it said to let out small cough every few seconds. Well i coughed which was a huge mistake because i felt something pop under my breast and the pain became crippling and i couldnt move without it hurting. I had to stay with very little movement for about 5 days and it was the worst pain i had ever experienced. Since then i vowed to never sleep on my left again. As im typing this the pain been here vut dully and its been lile that for about a week now and ive luckily avoided many cases for the severe pain to arrive. But i am afaraid its only going to get worse within the following weeks. Ive gone to the doctor about it before and they arent really sure what is wrong. And when it happens at school the nurse told me it could be a gallbladder problem and to go back to the doctor but my mom never took me. Sorry this is long but i hope i could contribute to the discussion.

When I was 13 I got a sharp pain under my left breast which got worse when I took deep breaths but it only lasted for about 5 minutes, I'm 15 now and they usually last almost half an hour and I'm really scared something's wrong.
