Sharp back pain when i breath deep, what could this be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Could be: Slipped rib syndrome or pleuritis. If you have no fever, chills or cold and are otherwise healthy it's probably one of the ribs you slipped our place in your sleep, golf or other activities with rapid twisting.
