These symptoms can be a sign of various things. For example, it might be caused by an inflammation in the chest area, like a muscle strain, or an ongoing cough. It can be the inflammation of the lining around your lungs as well. Relaxing, taking painkillers, and looking for any other symptoms will help. However, if it worsens or becomes a regular thing, you should consult a cardiologist.
