asthma, pneumonia, a blood clot to the lung, the collapse of a small area of a lung or pneumothorax, inflammation of the lining around the lung or pleurisy. in these cases, the chest pain often worsens when you take a deep breath or cough and usually feels sharp. We should also rule out strain or inflammation of the muscles and tendons between the ribs and anxiety and rapid breathing. Rapid breathing during anxiety is most probably the cause. Are there other signs or symptoms present?
