MAYBE: What is the nature of the pain? You should see your doctor. It may or may not be related to the asthma. There are many causes of chest pain. Without more details , one cannot answer the question with any certainty.

Could be: Bad pains in the chest could be many things ranging from a pulled muscle to heartburn to bronchitis to a heart attack. Pains would not mean that you are going to have asthma but it could mean you pulled a muscle from coughing due to asthma.
