Nerve is irritated: Possibly your phrenic nerve underneath your diaphragm is irritated by deep breathing and strenuous exercise. Go see a dr if it worsens, just to be sure there's no problem with your gallbladder, liver or lungs. (i wonder if your girlfriend punched you in that area?) god bless you friend!
