See your doctor: This is never normal. See your doctor. He/she will listen to you, perform an examination, and possibly order tests to find out what's wrong.

Something!: May be anything from trauma to your chest wall, pneumonia, pneumothorax, and a long list. See you pcp and give a complete history and be examined to get to the source. Some are serious.
