i have a bubbly pain like right at the top of my ribs and by my chest on my left side and the more i breath it feels like it inflates more and the pain is worst. it has happened to me before and when i take a deep breath it hurts so bad until it feels like it pops and the pain goes away.
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your situation and problem. Bilateral chest pain, worsening by breathing is seen on lung infection and bronchitis. So better to consult pulmonologist and get done clinical examination of respiratory system, chest x-ray and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test). Chest x-ray is needed to rule out lung infection. PFT is needed to rule out bronchitis. If both are normal, then possibility of musculoskeletal pain is more. So start painkiller and muscle relaxant Chat Doctor.  Apply warm water pad on affected areas. Avoid heavyweight lifting and strenuous exercise. Avoid movements causing pain. Don't worry, you will be alright. First rule out Pulmonary causes. Hope I have solved your query. Wish you good health. Thanks.
