Spasm: it could be a simple muscle spasm to the muscle between the ribs. apply heat pad,and take ibuprofen. if the pain persisted,and specially if it is associated with palpitation,like fast heart beat,then you need to see your doctor. do not take any chances. being young does not mean it is not your heart.

Rest: Based on your stated age of 23 and your report of pain associated with working out, I suspect that you have pulled a muscle and suggest a period of rest and avoiding strenuous activity until your symptoms subside.
