Getting over a cold?: If you've recently had a cold with a lot of coughing, you may have strained some muscles in your chest wall from all of the coughing. This should gradually resolve over time. If it doesn't, or if it seems unrelated to a recent cough or other musculoskeletal injury, then it'd probably be a good idea to get checked out.
