What does a sharp pain in your chest mean?

Answer 1

Running for a long distance or sprinting can knot up that area of the body. Otherwise i don't know.

if it occurs while breathing, shouting or inhaling sharply, and it the pain is very sharp, it could be a cracked rib.

if you want a better answer, try being more specific.

(when does it occur? during what activity? ect.)

Answer 2

I have that right now. Up until today I had a spasm feeling in that area that has been going on for a few months. My ultrasound was O.K . I am getting refered to a GI Dr. I am not a doctor but from the research I have done I think it is my Gallbladder. My pain had been a mild anoyance until now, but sharp pain under the right rib cage, sometimes with vomiting usually is the Gallbladder.

It could mean a number ofthings. First, probably the most common is gas. It could maybe mean a heart attack. Does your left arm hurt? If so, it is probably a heart attack. It could also mean you just have a little pain.
