I am 25 years old. for the past couple of days, every niw and then i fell spasms in the right side of my chest, dosnt hurt and very short. what is it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Nerve or muscle: This fleeting symptom may be a pinched intercostal nerve which runs between two ribs. It could also be an irritable/irritated ribcage muscle. This would be somewhat tender. Avoid strain of the chest muscles or ribs and see your physician if symptoms persist.
