∙ 12y agoI'm not an expert, but as far as I know a sharp chest pain when you breathe in can signify one of two things: pneumonia or precordial catch syndrome
A sharp pain that gets worse when you take a deep breath or cough can be caused by pneumonia. If you also have fever, cough, headache, or low appetite, it's most likely pneumonia.
If the sharp pain is localized in the left side of the chest and only lasts a minute, or if it goes away with a "pop" feeling after taking a very deep breath, then the pain was likely precordial catch syndrome. PCS, though painful, is just a muscle spasm in the chest and is not dangerous.
