Muscle issues..: It sounds like you might have some muscle and possible nerve irritation in that area. If you suffered an injury, pushed,pulled, did heavy lifting this is most likely the consequence. Sometimes just by sleeping in the wrong position you may have this issue. Icing and anti-inflammatory meds can help. If persists or worse make sure you get checked ASAP esp. if not better or chest pain as well.

For the past few days I have had sharp pain to the left of my sternum when breathing deeply and with certain movements. There is a burning under my left shoulder blade. After day two it seemed to be going away but it is back. No other symptoms.
