SubQ crepitus?: You may want to have that checked out immediately if your chest wall crackles like bubble wrap. It could be very dangerous. Thanks for trusting HealthTap!

Get checked: Although you do not hurt, you should not have "bubble popping" in your chest. You are a 20 year old male and I would be concerned for spontaneous pneumothorax.
