More frequently of late I get a tightness and small amount of pain in my chest. I attempt to ‘pop’ my chest, causing a sensation that feels like a knuckle popping, but sometimes it gets ‘stuck’, causing more discomfort until I can finally pop it which is a sharp, dull pain.
Its in the right of sternum. I’ve also noticed that the right of my chest sticks out more than the left, about half an inch more, if that is related at all. Been putting of seeing a doctor because it’s intermittent and doesn’t hinder my daily activities or stop be breathing at all. Just wondered if there was anyone out there with these symptoms who was diagnosed.

It hurts but in a dull stabing sense. when this happens i have no other symptoms. just the pain. no tightness, short breathing ect..

Why Do Asthma Meds Initially Seem To Worsen And Heighten Pain/symptoms?
February 27th, 2010After I take inhalers such as Albuterol or Xopenex, atrovent, symbicort, advair, …those types, I initially for at least 5 minutes or more even 10 seem to feel even more heaviness, pain, and sensations in my lung, before I start to finally feel better.
What are all these tingly and spastic sensations I get in my chest? Is this because the lungs are extra-sensitive and reacting to the drug at first, before it starts to work?
I notice sometimes weird tingliness in my back, my front sometimes, not like the whole CHEST tingles, but like maybe small one inch spots here or there tingle, almost like there’s a nerve there that’s twitching and tingling, and I sometimes feel that same tight/tingly feeling in the throat and in the chest.
Is that the bronchospasms, or are those MINI bronchospasms, or is that just…medication working and opening things up and you start feeling it.
What exactly is going on!?!?
How can I tell what’s asthma from what’s something else?
